I thought the bit about lengthy training in meteorology was missing but
I see that such is no longer required:

never mind eh?

I thought the ITV presenters weren't trained meteorologists,
in contrast to the BBC.

Yeah, I think that's true. ITV has "presenters" while those on the BBC
actually know what they are talking about. Does anyone watch the ITV
weather? I don't bother as it's a waste of time. "By around midday, the rain
will be situated about here (waves hand about)" Great!
