Phillip Eden did a nice job of explaining current vs historic forecast
technology today on R5 (given the limited slot just before midday), but
as he stated that he's a radio-only weatherman, when was the first
public broadcast radio forecast made?


Well I think the BBC first started broadcasting in 1924, so I guess it
would have been then.
