Apparently this is a regular feature on Radio 2 between 7:30 and 8am on
Saturdays. He's not restricted to talking about the latest forecast.
Yesterday the DJ (who came across as intelligent and commendably
interested in the weather, so it's a pity I can't remember his name) was
asking him how snow depths are measured.

Jim Bacon has long been one of my favourite weather
forecasters/presenters, but it had been ages since I last heard him. He
manages to be enthusiastic without falling into the trap of sensationalism.

He's regularily on Look East (BBC) during the week, when Julie Reinger's
not there.
