Daniel Corbett

From Free net encyclopedia

Image:Daniel Corbett.jpg Daniel Corbett (born in Dagenham, Essex) is a weatherman for the BBC, broadcasting on British television and radio from 1997-2000, and since 2004. He has a degree in meteorology from the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

Corbett has something of a cult following due to his individual style of presentation, including his standard 'point-and-nod' sign-off: "That's the weather... for now", and his trademark reference to the temperatures as "The Numbers". His creative similes ("... like Christmas goop") and specific weather-related advice ("so if you're out shopping ..." "don't forget that warm coat" "Schedule Kagools") are regular features of his forecasts.
