Career

After a brief spell at Met Office HQ at Bracknell, Hammond started forecasting in February 1991, working at regional weather centres in Nottingham, Bristol and Plymouth. This involved a variety of forecasting work for aviation, local industry, and some local radio too. However it wasn't until the mid-1990s when Hammond started TV weather presenting. He spent around seven years as a Met Office forecaster at ITV, until joining the BBC Weather Centre in the spring of 2003.
