Title: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

And you thought I was taken over by an Uggs spam bot?

Weatherman flawlessly pronounces that actual Welsh village name.  And then converts the temperature to Fahrenheit so the American viewers can get some perspective once it went viral.

The translated name is "simply": St. Mary's Church in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool and Parish of St. Tysilio of the red cave.

And it's only the second longest place name.
