<p><b>BBC Weather</b> is the department of the <a href="BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a> (British Broadcasting Corporation) responsible for both the preparation and the broadcasting of <a href="Weather_forecasting" title="Weather forecasting">weather forecasts</a>.

</p><p>On 6 February 2018, BBC Weather changed supplier from the government <a href="Met_Office" title="Met Office">Met Office</a> to <a href="MeteoGroup" title="MeteoGroup">MeteoGroup</a> after an open competition.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Met Office had been the provider of weather information for 94 years.<sup id="cite_ref-MeteoGroupLaunch_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MeteoGroupLaunch-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In July 2025, the BBC announced that it would be partnering with the Met Office again in future, instead of MeteoGroup.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>The first BBC weather forecast was a <a href="Shipping_forecast" class="mw-redirect" title="Shipping forecast">shipping forecast</a>, broadcast on the radio on behalf of the Met Office on 14 November 1922, and the first daily weather forecast was broadcast on 26 March 1923.

</p><p>In 1936, the BBC experimented with the world's first televised <a href="Weather_map" title="Weather map">weather maps</a>, brought into practice in 1949 after <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. The map filled the entire screen, with an off-screen announcer reading the next day's weather.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Advancement_of_technology">Advancement of technology</h3></div>

<p>On 11 January 1954, the first in-vision weather forecast was broadcast, presented by <a href="George_Cowling" title="George Cowling">George Cowling</a>. In an in-vision forecast, the narrator stands in front of the map. At that point, the maps were drawn by hand in the London Weather Centre, before being couriered across London.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-HUNT_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-HUNT-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The forecasts were presented by the same person who had composed them, and had relatively low accuracy. The London Weather Centre which opened in 1959 took the responsibility for the national radio weather broadcasts. Radio forecasters were chosen by a BBC audition from the forecasters at the London Weather Centre.<sup id="cite_ref-HUNT_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-HUNT-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In 1962, the installation of a <a href="Fax_machine" class="mw-redirect" title="Fax machine">fax machine</a> and an <a href="Electronic_computer" class="mw-redirect" title="Electronic computer">electronic computer</a> in the Met Office led to more accurate and quicker forecasting.

</p><p><a href="Satellite_photography" class="mw-redirect" title="Satellite photography">Satellite photography</a> was available from 1964, but was of a poor quality and was given on paper, with the coastline etched in <a href="Felt-tip_pen" class="mw-redirect" title="Felt-tip pen">felt-tip pen</a>. This did not change until 1973 with the installation of a new computer, increasing processing power of the Weather Centre greatly, leading to forecasts twice as accurate as earlier ones.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Graphical_technology">Graphical technology</h3></div>

<p>As computational capability improved, so did graphics technology. Early hand-drawn maps gave way to magnetic symbols, which in turn gave way to <a href="Chroma_key" title="Chroma key">bluescreen</a> <a href="Colour-separation_overlay" class="mw-redirect" title="Colour-separation overlay">(CSO)</a> <a href="Computer-generated_imagery" title="Computer-generated imagery">computer-generated imagery</a> technology, each of which allowed the presenter greater control over the information displayed.

</p><p>Early magnetic symbols tended to adhere poorly to the maps, and occasional spelling errors (such as the presenter writing 'GOF' instead of 'FOG') marred some broadcasts, but allowed the presenter to show how weather would change over time. The symbols were designed to be 'self-explicit', allowing the viewer to understand the map without a key or legend.

</p><p>On 18 February 1985, computer graphics were introduced although the basic design of symbols was kept the same.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These forecasts were widely acclaimed for their simplicity, winning an award from the <a href="Royal_Television_Society" title="Royal Television Society">Royal Television Society</a> in 1993.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>On 2 October 2000, BBC Weather underwent a more significant change. Whilst there was not much change to the existing weather symbols, new symbols giving information on pollen and sun levels were introduced. A new more detailed map of Britain was used based on satellite data.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Great_Storm_of_1987_controversy">Great Storm of 1987 controversy</h3></div>

<p>Possibly the most famous of the forecasters is the now retired <a href="Michael_Fish" title="Michael Fish">Michael Fish</a>. Noted for his informal manner and eccentric dress sense (he once wore a blue and green blazer emblazoned with all the weather symbols), he was a viewer favourite despite an unfortunate comment before the <a href="Great_Storm_of_1987" class="mw-redirect" title="Great Storm of 1987">Great Storm of 1987</a>.

</p><p>During a <a href="Weather_forecasting" title="Weather forecasting">weather forecast</a> some hours before the storm, Michael Fish started his forecast with the now infamous line "Earlier on today, apparently, a woman rang the BBC and said she heard there was a hurricane on the way. Well, if you're watching, don't worry, there isn't". In this he was factually correct, as it is unlikely for a proper hurricane to reach the UK latitudes, and he was actually referring to a Florida hurricane (<a href="Hurricane_Floyd_(1987)" title="Hurricane Floyd (1987)">Floyd</a>). He then went on to accurately forecast stormy conditions over the south of England. However, the statement has gone down in popular culture as one of the worst mistakes made so publicly.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Weatherscape_XT_Graphics_(2005–2018)">Weatherscape XT Graphics (2005–2018)</h3></div>

<p>The weather symbols were replaced in May 2005 after 29 years and 9 months on air by a controversial format as the forecast underwent another redesign, with the flat map replaced by a 3D globe, and weather conditions shown by coloured areas. <a href="Cloud_cover" title="Cloud cover">Cloud cover</a> is indicated by the brightness of the map, while <a href="Rain" title="Rain">rain</a> and <a href="Snow" title="Snow">snow</a> are indicated by animated blue and white areas respectively.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The graphics are provided by Weatherscape XT, which was developed by the commercial arm of the New Zealand <a href="Metservice" class="mw-redirect" title="Metservice">Metservice</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The move polarised opinion; some saw it as more accurate and modern, while others disliked the brown colour chosen for the landmass and the presumed high cost of the graphics. The angling of the map, in order to show the curvature of the Earth, led to <a href="Scotland" title="Scotland">Scotland</a> appearing little larger than <a href="Devon" title="Devon">Devon</a>, and <a href="Shetland" title="Shetland">Shetland</a> being almost invisible while exaggerating <a href="London" title="London">London</a> and the <a href="South_East_England" title="South East England">South East</a>. This led to many Scottish commentators accusing the BBC of having a <a href="North-South_divide_in_the_United_Kingdom" class="mw-redirect" title="North-South divide in the United Kingdom">London bias</a>. As a result, the map was realigned, and the moving tour of the UK was lengthened.

</p><p>The new look won a Silver Award at the Promax/BDA Awards in 2006.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Criticism continued, however, with some viewers complaining about the colour scheme, and of a lack of detail in the forecast about weather developments beyond 36 hours. In 2006, a rippling effect was introduced to define seas and oceans.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="BBC_Weather_Service_switch_to_MeteoGroup">BBC Weather Service switch to MeteoGroup</h3></div>

<p>On 23 August 2015, the <a href="BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a> announced that the <a href="Met_Office" title="Met Office">Met Office</a> would lose its contract to provide weather forecasts, the BBC stating that it is legally obliged to ensure that licence fee payers get the best value for money.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The BBC said that the on-air presenting team was not expected to change and it would still broadcast warnings from the Met Office <a href="National_Severe_Weather_Warning_Service" title="National Severe Weather Warning Service">National Severe Weather Warning Service</a> and <a href="Shipping_Forecast" title="Shipping Forecast">Shipping Forecast</a> issued on behalf of the <a href="Maritime_and_Coastguard_Agency" title="Maritime and Coastguard Agency">Maritime and Coastguard Agency</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>A competitive tendering process followed, with <a href="MeteoGroup" title="MeteoGroup">MeteoGroup</a> (now part of <a href="DTN_(company)" title="DTN (company)">DTN</a>)<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> chosen as the new provider in August 2016.

</p><p>On 6 February 2018, the <a href="BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a> began using the <a href="MeteoGroup" title="MeteoGroup">MeteoGroup</a> graphics,<sup id="cite_ref-MeteoGroup_19-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MeteoGroup-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which include:

<p>Public feedback in January 2018 regarding the subsequent updates and changes to the BBC Website and associated weather applications for mobile devices were generally critical.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

Many weather watchers were highly critical of the new design, with widespread criticism voiced across the media. Many used the comments section of the blog<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> written by Michael Burnett, the BBC Executive responsible, to voice their complaints. The blog entry dated 22 January 2018 was originally aimed at positively promoting the changes, but this appeared to have the opposite effect when the blog post generated well over 1000 mostly critical comments in under 10 days.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="BBC_Weather_switch_back_to_Met_Office">BBC Weather switch back to Met Office</h3></div>
