It's gotta be tough to work the traffic beat this winter on the East Coast. Well, here's a pretty hilarious video out of Baltimore, showing Fox 45's Candace Dold tossing to "Traffic Jam Jimmy"—who just happens to be in the McDonald's drive-through, trying to order a fish sandwich. 

"Hey Candace, we're live? Whoops!" he says. "Hey, I've been in the car since 4 o'clock. I'm starvin'. I'm just gettin' somethin' real quick" Then a quick shout at the drive-through attendant "Hey! Is it too early to get a fish sandwich?!"

What's great about the video is that the station just runs with it, showing the orange-bearded, O's-capped Jimmy improvising the segment—and his meal, as it was still breakfast time.
