In 1988 at the annual international weather festival in Paris Fred was voted the top weatherman of the year by television and weather presenters from over a hundred countries. In the same year he also received a ‘Gotcha’ from Noel Edmonds. Since 1985 Fred has worked with Granada providing daily films for the award winning local news programme Granada Reports.
