To wonder why weather presenters seem to wear evening wear to present the weather?

Mainly local ones. Current one has a nifty lace and black number. One yesterday on the national new had a black one with a completely sheer yoke and no bra.

Being a person with no life I wonder about this every single day. Grin they seem to confuse formal and evening wear.

Ps. Is Lisa on Maternity leave again? There must be something in the water at Look North - Amy's just had a baby hasn't she?

Doesn't anyone else have Eno ? Dressed up to the nines, looks amazing and also slightly tongue-in-cheek ...

I'm reliably informed that Judith of reporting Scotland is a lesbian pin up. I'm not a lesbian but I could totally understand this. There's rarely an inch of flesh showing - its all covered up but in a lovely lovely tight, I mean boss kind of way.

If you sit through Countryfile you will be rewarded with the Countryfile forecast, in which familiar weathermen 'dress down' in belted, pressed jeans and landowners checked shirts.

I'm a bit obsessed.

She had more clubwear on this morning. A purple lace satiny dress😖

I could well imagine that Sunny - butch dominatrix describes her look perfectly

SunnyL · 27/11/2015 10:03

I love countryfile - its like when Gordon Brown tried to dress down for his holiday photos. They just look so starched and uncomfortable!

Wagglebees · 27/11/2015 10:21

We get Eno Footle She's my favourite.

I often think they look like they're off out after work. Wait until it gets nearer Christmas, the sequins come out then.

Footle · 27/11/2015 11:28

As my old man says, Eno is a lot pleasanter to look at than the weather she's usually telling us about.

IDismyname · 28/11/2015 18:49

It's Kate Kinsella - worst dressed weather presenter ever!

I want to drag her down to the nearest House of Colour to get her style sorted...

(Sorry Kate)

Kate Kinsellas Wardrobe

Someone said Eno makes all her clothes. Can't imagine her running up a new out fit every day. But, if you look, they are clearly separates or dresses from the same pattern.

Diane Oxberry has a few "experimental" outfits.

mintoil · 28/11/2015 18:59

Ooh temerature makes my feet curl!!

I am in south east and our weather presenters often have that Rachel Riley walk of shame/cheap hooker look about them too. There's just no need for it! Hoiks bosom

I love Carol K but she needs a bra intervention.

Kate Kinsella needs a full makeover bless her heart.

God I really don't have a life do I? Blush

I once met Paul on a night out in my much younger days. I amused myself by asking him for the weather forecast. He must have thought me a right prat.

HungryHorace · 28/11/2015 20:17

Eno can barely strong a sentence together. I can't watch her as she trips over her words way too much for my liking!

HungryHorace · 28/11/2015 20:18

String, clearly. Thanks, autocorrect!

Wagglebees · 28/11/2015 20:24

The irony Hungry Grin

And how dare you. Eno's great!

FellOutOfBedTwice · 28/11/2015 20:30

I'm in London and haven't noticed this but was recently in Nottingham and the weather presenter was so overdressed and over made up that I actually took a photo of the telly and sent it to my friend saying "is this normal work wear in the north?" Grin so I think it's a northern thing.

QueefChegwin · 28/11/2015 21:25

I get Paul the Weatherman too. My favourite is a woman on Sky News that always wears black shoes and tights. As the bottom of the weather map is black, it looks like she doesn't have any legs and is floating. She always reminds me of Orko off of He-man.

mrsleomcgary · 28/11/2015 22:04

Ahhh Judith Ralston,i came on here to comment on her!

She has extremes,either proper high-glam or dressed in the dark. Once on the 10.30pm report she was wearing what can only be described as a purple gym tshirt with a pink sports bra over the top. I may have a picture...

PerspicaciaTick · 28/11/2015 22:06

Ours seem to dress very sensibly, but do appear to be almost continuously pregnant.

SirChenjin · 28/11/2015 22:08

Your description of that outfit doesn't surprise me at all mrs - DH and I often call each other through to the TV just to see her outfits!

mrsleomcgary · 28/11/2015 22:08

Gym tshirt-sports bra combo.

Just last week me and DS were making a joke about the weather lady looking like she was off out to a fancy do afterwards.

I don't know her name but she had a very fancy red outfit and too much make up on.

madamginger · 29/11/2015 01:20

I saw Eno in Tesco once, she is beautiful irl and really tall.
