As an afterthought, in my time, we had amongst us a

Mr Flood

Mr Frost

Mr Gale

Mr Waterfall

and Mr Snow.
A certain Mr. Gale was a Met Officer during one of my postings to RAF Odiham (can't recall exactly which one as I was posted there five times in all). His forecasts always used to be signed "I. C. Gale".

At first I thought it was a spoof, but apparently his forenames were Ian Charles. A more appropriate name for a met officer I couldn't imagine .
