The visual is in a clear patch of the sky.\u00a0In the original the video, the person filming can be heard saying: \u2018Hey, we\u2019ve got a storm over here. We got no power, everything blowing over here, boxes trees.\u2019\u00a0Those who were watching the broadcast were quick to point out that it looked like the shadowy figure in the video had arms and legs. Dolo replied to one of the commenters in the post: \u2018You can\u2019t tell me my God ain\u2019t real!\u2026.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That we do know: He certainly is.<\/p>\n<p>We also know we live in a time of many and sundry signs.
