That’s probably the responsible thing to do. It is always odd to see American weather disaster reporters, like:

“We’re here inside the hurricane, let me go outside so you can see that the wind will push me over. Can’t hear anything because my microphone is getting blasted by the wind. Over there you can see the emergency responders, they appear to be fleeing. Tell my wife I love her, but I’ve got to die for some b-roll.”
