claim: A video shows Hurricane Irma hitting Miami International Airport.
origin: On 10 September 2017, the White Houseâ€™s social media director Dan Scavino, Jr. posted several images and videos showing the effects of historically huge Hurricane Irma, which ravaged the Caribbean region before moving up to Florida.Â One such video purported to show the massive storm hitting Miami International Airport, but is actually of a completely different weather system (Lidia) at a completely different location (Mexicoâ€™s Distrito Federal):Â This video was taken at the Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de MÃ©xico on 30 August 2017, and it shows the effectsÂ of Tropical Storm Lidia, not Hurricane Irma: < VIDEO | La intensa lluvia de esta tarde obligÃ³ a suspender vuelos en el Aeropuerto de la Ciudad de MÃ©xico, cortesÃ­a @AICM_mx pic.twitter.com/Jx6eD3zHem â€” La Candenteâ„¢ MÃ©xico (@LaCandenteMX) August 31, 2017 > (Translation: â€œThe intense rain this afternoon forced the suspension of flights at the Mexico City Airport, courtesy @AICM_mx.â€) The Miami International Airportâ€™s Twitter account was quick to correct Scavino: < This video is not from Miami International Airport. â€” Miami Intâ€™l Airport (@iflymia) September 10, 2017 > Scavino deleted the video, explainingÂ that he was inundated with information when he shared his erroneous message:Â < Thank you. It was among 100s of videos/pics I am receiving re: Irma from public. In trying to notify all, I shared â€“ have deleted. Be safe! > Mexico had offered to send help to victims of Hurricane Harvey, which made landfall in Texas in August 2017 just days before its counterpart Irma hit the Caribbean, but rescinded the offer after a massive earthquake hit its Pacific coast on 8 September 2017, killing dozens and leaving millions of people in Mexico in need of aid.
