From Weather Presenter to Land Steward

With three decades in meteorology and a life now grounded in the soil, Graham Creed brings science, storytelling, and hands-on experience together to help Australians read the skies with confidence.

A Life Shaped by Weather

Before life on the land, Graham spent more than 30 years immersed in meteorology — starting with the Bureau of Meteorology in 1985.

He trained as a Weather Observer, learning to interpret radar, upper-air data, and cloud formations, before taking those skills across Australia — from Moree and Wagga Wagga to Lord Howe Island.

Those years built a rare skill set: the ability to see weather not just as data, but as living systems playing out across different landscapes.

From Studio Lights to the Skies

Graham became a familiar face across Australia when he joined The Weather Channel in 2000, then spent 14 years as a national weather presenter with ABC News.

Every day, he turned complex meteorological science into stories people could understand — from city commutes to rural fire warnings.

“My goal was always simple: make the weather meaningful. It’s not just what’s happening — it’s why it matters.”

Trading Maps for Muddy Boots

In 2022, Graham and his partner, Bridgit, moved to their 119-acre property, Eagles Reach, on the NSW Mid Coast.

Here, they grow Proteas, Waratahs, and Leucospermums, keep bees, and manage regeneration projects through local Landcare and Rivercare initiatives.

Floods, fires, droughts — the experiences that once made news headlines were now part of daily life.

“After years of reporting on weather events, I was finally living them. It changed how I saw resilience — not as a concept, but something built with knowledge and community.”

Blending Science with Soil

    The Farmer’s Eye

    Seeing weather’s impact on crops, soil and ecosystems — not from theory, but from experience.

    The Scientist’s Mind

    Decoding models, satellites, and AI-based tools to translate global data into local understanding.

    The Educator’s Heart

    Helping others build confidence, make informed decisions, and strengthen climate resilience in their own communities.

Caring for the Land,
Sharing the Knowledge

Beyond his workshops, Graham remains deeply connected to the land itself.
He’s actively involved in environmental stewardship projects — from tree planting and erosion control to water quality and eDNA monitoring in the Karuah River catchment — each effort focused on strengthening local ecosystems and community resilience.

This hands-on work is what grounds Graham’s teaching. For him, understanding weather isn’t just about predicting what’s next — it’s about caring for the land it shapes and helping others do the same.

Today, he combines decades of meteorological expertise, years of on-air experience, and a farmer’s perspective to deliver engaging, practical weather and climate education.

His workshops are designed for farmers, Landcare teams, councils, and community groups who want to make sense of the forecast — and use it to make smarter, safer, more sustainable decisions for their region.
