In the segment, Ginger highlighted how the state’s current massive heat wave is affecting marine life, calling the conditions “devastating.”
However, not all were sympathetic to the situation, as one critic slammed GMA on Twitter for reporting the story.
“I see you keeping up with the propaganda campaign on global warming or earth on fire or whatever u people say it is today,” their tweet read, with a bunch of laughing, crying face emojis.
But Ginger wasn’t allowing the comment to slide and clapped back at the user in her reply.
“And I see you still haven’t gotten a profile picture. Thanks so much I am just here presenting data,” the news anchor wrote back.
FANS’ CONCERNS
Meanwhile, other viewers of the daytime TV program have expressed their concerns for Ginger recently as she’s been out in the field.
Last week, the 41-year-old shared a photo on Instagram of her standing in a yard where a sinkhole had formed, sparking a slew of worried comments from her followers.
She explained her whereabouts in her caption: “Here in Cindy Beyer’s front yard. A sinkhole consumed her driveway. Debris piled up against the homes from the creek that became a seething river.
“Many in the Hudson Valley picking up more than 8 inches in about 6 hours. From here to Pennsylvania where they had a 1 in 1000 year flood. That means a 0.1% chance of this happening in a given year.”
The caption concluded: “It’s rare. It’s devastating. And it’s not over — Vermont is ground zero today. Stay safe and avoid driving if you are in a flash flood warning!”
Ginger also posted a video where she had gone through the area and shared the catastrophic results of what had happened at the home.
Fans urged her to be careful in the comments, with one person writing: “Be safe out there.”
Another echoed the thought: “Ginger don’t fall out there!”
CLAPPING BACK
Ginger was put in another scary situation days earlier on July 6 when she visited a “ghost forest” in New Jersey.
She took to Instagram to share a photo of her on-site, donning an ABC News baseball cap with mosquito netting attached to it.
But the TV star again faced some scrutiny from social media users, though not about the story, but her wardrobe.
One confused fan tweeted: “@Ginger_Zee why don’t U explain that Ridiculous NET on ur face?”
Not one to back down from a troll, Ginger fired back: “I’ve explained it every time I’ve been on – I’m in a swamp ghost forest — this is a mosquito net so it’s not so ridiculous.”
The mom of two recently returned to GMA after taking a break from her hosting duties to spend time with her family.
Ginger shares two sons, seven-year-old Adrian and five-year-old Miles, with her husband, Ben Aaron, 41.
