weathercaster

Television climate reporter

A weathercaster is a person who presents weather forecasts on television or radio.

The term emphasizes the broadcast role rather than meteorological expertise—some weathercasters are trained meteorologists, others are presenters reading prepared forecasts: The weathercaster predicted rain through the weekend.
