#SignGuy steals the show as he delivers an animated storm warning

An Australian sign language interpreter has taken social media by storm — while covering one that battered Queensland.
 
While Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk gave an update on Cyclone Marcia, social media began to take notice of her sign language interpreter — some saying he stole show, along with our hearts.
 
The interpreter, Mark Cave, has been dubbed #SignGuy on Twitter, and viewers have fallen in love with his larger-than-life, animated expressions.
 
“Early days but I declare the sign language translator at today’s press conference the star of TC Marcia. #TCMarcia,” tweeted @CookerandLooker.
 
Another person, @czhedgehog, tweeted, “#signguy doing a GREAT JOB at press conf - #disability matters , thank you. #TCMarcia”

@JBPooket tweeted, “This guy is magic #signguy #TCMarcia”
 
As for Cave, he’s not a big fan of his new found Internet fame.

“I’m sort of a private person. I’d rather not be in the spotlight, but I know this is such an important thing to do, and I feel confident I can do a good job,” he said, “I’m just hoping to fly under the radar and nobody will look at me afterwards.”
