Last week The Weather Experiment was BBC Radio 4’s Book of the Week. It was superbly done – Tim McMullan makes a very fine, poised FitzRoy – and for the next few weeks the broadcasts will be available on iPlayer. Here’s a list with links to the five episodes:
- Stormy Weather
- The Weather Report
- Shipwreck and Storm Warnings
- A Balloon Ascent
- Prognostications and Forecasts
Also next weekend I’ve got two events. First at the Hay Festival and then at the Greenwich International Book Festival where I’ll get to talk about FitzRoy, Glaisher, Beaufort and the rest of them in much more detail. Do come along if you can.
