From 'Radio Times', listing for Easter Monday/BBC4

(1): 2000 - 2100 .. "The Jetstream and Us": I have a feeling this is a
repeat from one of the terrestrial channels, but it isn't listed as a
such.

(2): 2100-2200 .. " Rain: the first of three programmes about the
weather, tonight exploring the science behind rain and sharing stories
that highlight how people have adapted in response to it .... "

Also, from the associated panel " .... Add the history of meteorology,
including the man who started measuring rainfall ...": I wonder if
this is in fact something to do with the history of the British
Rainfall Organization?

This is the first of a new series - two more to come.

The programmes are repeated at 0115 and 0215 respectively later that
night - probably with in-vision signing.
