Seán Batty has presented weather on TV for 15 years, and has been the weather presenter for STV since joining the channel in August 2007.  Seán also presents weather and environmental programming, such as popular series Seán’s Scotland which was STV’s best watched regional non-news programme this year.

Seán’s interest in the weather began when he was only seven years old, after receiving a BBC weather kit for his birthday.  Seán studied meteorology at Reading University, and his career began at the Met Office where he was a weather observer at the school of Army Training at Middle Wallop airbase in Hampshire. Seán later joined the ITV Weather team preparing TV weather graphics and maps for ITV’s national and regional programming, as well as S4C and UTV.

Prior to joining STV, Seán was a Broadcast Assistant based at the BBC’s Television Centre in White City, London. During his time at the BBC he did detachments and presented the weather for nearly all of the English regions, Wales and Northern Ireland.
