このコンテンツについて

Meet Gemma and Aisling. They have worked in the UK as meteorologists for over fifteen years. Gemma came up with the idea that maybe others might like to listen to the non stop conversations they still have all these years later about the weather. Over the years they have forecast for festivals, farming, road, rail, energy, media, aviation and even the humble ice cream demand forecast and so much more. They have gone through job changes, life changes and delved in and out of many hobbies and somehow the weather still weaves in and out of their lives. So this podcast is for anyone who would like to join our weather conversations and wherever the jet stream may take us! We hope you join us for our bi weekly chat and leave each episode loving the weather just that little bit more.

  • Blissful rain and the Welly Walk, meet Alice Stevens.
    2025/07/02

    In this episode we chat to Alice Stevens, creator of welly walks. These are bright yellow tech wellies that people can walk around in. Depending on the weather, the wellies would say different poems, sensing the weather with low tech barometric sensors to understand the weather at the moment. She is also the creator of rain trail which uses paint to reveal illustrations that would only appear if it rained. She has many more projects in the pipeline such as ‘blissful rain, isinit?’, a dialogue around using positive language around rain.

    Alice is a Senior Lecturer in Graphic Design at Arts University Bournemouth and is currently doing a PhD in the intersection of British Weather, Creative Practice and Ecolinguisitics. This is a field of language that studies that explores the relationship between language, human societies, and the natural environment and says that if we hide away in building we lose connection and conversation about the weather and climate.

    She leaves us with some poignant thoughts about the importance of using positive language around the environment, for example talking about 'blissful rain'. She is working on a new installation ‘WeatherKin’ that will be used in bus shelters that shares other people positive memories of rains.

  • Heatwaves and hot weather; June records are tumbling in the UK
    2025/06/29

    June 2025 started off cool but is set to be a record breaker for parts of the UK.

    At the time of recording there was still a few days to go in June but some regions will have their hottest June on record, tumbling a 49 year record.

    During the summer of 1976, there was a well documented heatwave and up until now was the hottest June on record for quite a few regions in the UK.

    There are a lot of fun facts in this short podcast including a little chat about 'swullucking'!

  • No introduction needed: Meet Prof Ed Hawkins
    2025/06/18

    For the love of weather podcast is back with a new series. This first podcast is a hero-gram to climate scientist Prof Ed Hawkins.

    Climate scientist Professor Ed Hawkins is an expert in climate change communications. Ed was surprised when his visualisation of a warming world burst into life when his climate stripes #showyourstripes were used in the 2016 Rio Olympics.

    #showyourstripws is a simple and unique way of using colour to visualising climate change through warmth and colour.

    One of Ed’s many climate projects was undertaken in 2020 when he set up a project to transcribe and digitise millions of paper rainfall observations. This was undertaken by thousands of volunteers, the results of which would feed into and ultimately make climate models more accurate.

    It was a project he thought would take a very long time to complete, but with the help of lots of volunteers they managed to complete it in just 16 days; the results have been phenomenal.

    Ed chats about his brilliant ‘warming stripes’ - #showyouratripes , which are a simple and unique way to breakdown complex science into simple colours to highlight a warming world and an incredible strength of spirit to keep going to find new ways to tell the story of climate change - a story he cared about deeply.

    The warming stripes are available for lots of countries and cities around the world and you can find them here - https://showyourstripes.info/

    We really hope you enjoy this episode of the podcast, and leave loving the weather just a little bit more.
