Peter Coade is Nova Scotia's most respected, experienced and trusted weathercaster. Nova Scotians have come to depend on Peter's forecasts and now he is a valued member of the CBC Television team.

In 1962, Peter joined the federal government weather service, where he was trained in the science of meteorology, more commonly known as weather casting.

During his tenure at the government, Peter worked in Truro, Nova Scotia, Goose Bay, Labrador and Toronto, Ontario.

It was in Goose Bay, that Peter started his media career with the CBC. He presented the weather nightly from CFLA-TV, to a largely American audience, members of the USAF and their families.

While stationed in Toronto with the federal weather service, he also held the position of staff meteorologist for radio station CFRB, working with personalities like Gordon Sinclair and Betty Kennedy.

Peter worked for ATV/ASN from March of 1990 until he re-joined the CBC in September of 2007. Peter's very first appearance on CBC Television was back in the late 1950's, when one day he job shadowed weatherman Rube Hornstein for a day.

From that very first experience, he's been hooked on weather and is now the 'go to local weather forecaster' for CBC Television audiences in Nova Scotia.
