Because The Lord of the Rings officially put New Zealand on the map (it was seriously just ocean before), everyone in the country is popping an insane amount of boners over the release of The Hobbit. And to prove their raging fandom, here's a video of a New Zealand weatherman delivering the forecast in the Elvish language of Sindarin. My God, these folks really do go crazy for some hobbits. I bet they feel like I did at my first Britney Spears concert. "Your what?!" I meant the first time I shot a gun.

Hit the jump for the video.

Thanks to Blake and Zimman, who agree he should have given the forecast in Dwarvish while swinging a hammer and totally wrecking shit.
