I've discovered that Wikipedia has a category "British meteorologists":

Those who have entries seem to be a mixture of the genuinely eminent and
those who are currently or have recently appeared as TV forecast
presenters. I'm wondering if it would be over-pedantic of me not to add
Manley on the grounds that he was a climatologist rather than a
meteorologist?

No, I think he shld be in as a meteorologist as well-the Dunn Fell work
justifies it alone.


I'll add that then.

I see the term meteorologist is redefined here-

Though those who have heard her seem to reckon that she does a better
job of putting the forecast across than many of those who are
professional meteorologists.
