A weather presenter (also known as a weather girl, weatherman or weather broadcaster) is a person who presents the weather forecast daily on radio, television or internet news broadcasts.

Using tools such as projected weather maps, they inform the viewers of the current and future weather conditions, explain underlying reasons, and relay weather hazards and warnings issued for their region, country or larger areas.

A weather presenter is not necessarily qualified as a meteorologist. Preparation to become a weather presenter varies by country and media. It can range from an introduction to meteorology for a television host to a diploma in meteorology from a recognized university.
