Writing Weather News Articles

Weather news

Weather news is a vital part of the daily lives of people in all walks of life. From a simple forecast to an elaborate analysis, there are many different types of Weather news stories.

The ability to write a well-crafted and engaging Weather report can be an essential skill for anyone involved in journalism, meteorology, or any other field where information must be conveyed effectively. In this article, students will explore the process of crafting a weather report by learning the fundamentals of gathering data, analyzing and organizing it, and communicating it to a diverse audience.

Articles must be of high quality and interest to a broad multidisciplinary readership, including scientists and practitioners in both industry and academia and enthusiasts and educators. Contributions should provide insight into the nature and importance of atmospheric processes and their impact on the environment and society, including the links between climate and health.

Figures and photographs should be clear, pertinent, and self-evident. They should ideally be of a size suitable for reproduction in Weather at 1-column width, 2-column width, or (occasionally) full-page width (please refer to recent issues for examples). Colour figures are encouraged where possible, particularly where the use of contrasting colours improves clarity. All figures should be clearly labelled and numbered serially, with a reference to them in the text. Photographs should be accompanied by a statement of the exposure used, as well as any digital manipulation details (e.g., cropping and filtering). The Editors reserve the right to return manuscripts that do not satisfy these requirements.
