Our friends at WNEP-TV near Scranton got an animal-related surprise Monday night.

It's one that even the station's weatherman couldn't forecast.

A group of bears ambled onto the station's outdoor weather set during the 11:00 news!

One of the bears was just 10 feet from meteorologist Kurt Aaron. He quickly retreated to the safe confines of the newsroom to give his forecast.
