Abstract
MR. F. J. BRODIE, who entered the Meteorological Office in April 1869 and retired in December 1919, after fully fifty years' service, died on August 29 in his seventy-third year. He was principal forecaster for many years, and was essentially a forecaster of the old type, basing his predictions strictly on past experience, with a thorough grip of weather changes and their controlling features, whereas the present-day forecasters work on a somewhat more strictly scientific basis.
