Default And another three questions - novelty forecasts, famous weather presenters, and Singing in the rain

3. I also have a dim memory that at various times various other
countries have used novelty formats for forecasts - girls in bikini,
talking donkeys, that sort of thing. Am I just making it up, or is
"today the weather will be scorchio" influencing me too much?

At least one Finnish and one Czech TV station have used nude
weathergirls as a gimmick. If you put "nude weather" into a search
engine - as I did - you'll get plenty of hits.
