Former weatherman on BBC, which is of course a prominent position but does not grant inherent notability, and there seems to be a lack of significant coverage for this bio to pass WP:GNG. His BBC profile cited in the article, while probably reliable, isn't independent; this article, about an incident involving him accusing another weatherman of workplace bullying, contains no more than a passing mention of him, as does related coverage.
