Very sad news, indeed. I never met Paul and knew of him only through u.s.w.
Like several of us here, he originated in the "pencil and rubber" generation of
weather forecasting and later in his career was able to expoit the developing
technology. He was clearly an enthusiast for his craft. The "Bartlett High" is
a fitting memory.


Maybe we can have a whip-round to reserve the third "P" in the DWD
high namings for this year in memoriam !

I would be interested in contributing - Whenever I asked for Paul for
advice on matters meteorological he was always obliging, taking time
to answer in detail. A true gentleman.
