From 1974 to 2004, he was a television presenter for BBC Weather.
He was the longest-serving broadcast meteorologist on British television
The Sunday Times gave him the honour of “National Treasure”.
A few hours before the Great Storm of 1987 broke, on 15 October 1987, he said on TV: “Earlier on today a woman rang the BBC and said she heard there was a hurricane on the way. Well, if you’re watching, don’t worry, there isn’t!”.
The storm was the worst to hit South East England for three centuries
He had a record dedicated to him in 1985 by the punk group Rachel and Nicki – (called “I wish, I wish, he was like Michael Fish”)
In 2017 he partnered with Fullers Brewery for a campaign called #Whenitrainsitpours which gave Twitter followers a free pint of London Pride each time it rained in London
