Update!

I got in touch with the wonderful Paul, Chief Executive of the Royal Meteorological Society, about National Weather Forecasters' Day.

Here's what he had to say:


Hi Lloyd – good to hear from you again.



You’re right we don’t have an equivalent but there is a World Meteorology Day which is 24 March each year and we usually do something of an event each year. We have a dinner this year but perhaps next year with a bit of planning we could do something with you that’s a bit different to our normal activities.



Kind Regards



Paul H.







What a truly cracking man. Let's hope that by next year we can organise some sort of ticker tape parade for Weather Forecasters. Maybe down the Mall, or Wooten Bassett or something. Or at least get newsreaders wearing weather awareness badges.





Sorry I've been blanking you all.
Normal service will be resumed shortly.
