That’s not thunder – it’s Owain the weather man on drums

Owain Wyn Evans has been brightening the BBC weather forecast for North West viewers since stepping into the big shoes of much-missed late presenter, Dianne Oxberry.

With his beautiful Welsh accent, sharp sartorial style and appropriately sunny disposition, Owain takes some of the sting out of being stuck inside while the sky is clear and the temperatures pleasant.

What we didn’t know until now is that he’s also a pretty decent drummer, and this little snippet at the end of his latest lockdown forecast is the perfect demonstration.
