#11 First Weather Forecast
The first weather forecast appeared in The Times newspaper in 1861. It was created by a meteorologist that worked for the Royal Navy, but it is unknown as to what the reaction was to this very first forecast. However, it must have gone down quite well since it then took off and everybody knows how the British love to talk about the weather.
