The tense clash left Richard’s co-host Susanna Reid squirming as she attempted to laugh off the frosty exchange.
After Laura delivered an update on the weather for Donald Trump’s inauguration followed by a look at the UK’s forecast this week, Richard asked: “So is that freezing weather in Washington headed this way?”
She responded: “The freezing weather makes the jet stream stronger and then it will bring us storm weather by the end of the week.”
Richard replied: “Oh really, so we could have snow by next weekend?”
Laura snapped: “Yes, I literally just said that Richard. That’s literally what just happened.”
He then acted out the snow with his hand, which Susanna poked fun at him for.
“Come on,” laughed Richard. “Talk with the hand.”
Laura added: “My next weather forecast will just be in mime.”
Laura has previously described Richard as “the crazy uncle” in the Good Morning Britain family.

In an interview with The Sun about Richard, Laura said: “Richard is funny, I don’t think he realises he has no filter.
“He just says what he thinks but from the heart and sometimes he goes ‘you know what I was thinking’ and you think ‘no, I don’t know what you were thinking’.
“But then he just says it and I think it’s because he’s been doing it for long enough.”
Laura told us: “He [Richard] doesn’t care if he offends somebody – he kind of politely offends in the way that he does it and he gets the answers you need to have.”
