See Paul Hudson (Australian rules footballer) for the Hawthorn and Footscray footballer.

Paul Hudson (born February 27, 1971) is a weather presenter for BBC North, in the UK. He originates from Oakbank in Keighley. He has a first-class degree in Geophysics and Planetary Physics from the University of Newcastle. He can be seen on both editions of the regional news programme Look North, from Leeds (serving North, West and South Yorkshire and the north Midlands) and Hull (serving East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and north Norfolk) where he has enjoyed regular sparring with presenter Peter Levy since the programme began in 2002. He returned to the BBC Yorkshire weather centre from the Met Office's old home of Bracknell in 1997 when Darren Bett left to present national forecasts. He has also appeared on BBC One's Morning Show.

He can also be heard on BBC Radio Leeds, BBC Radio Sheffield, BBC Radio York, BBC Radio Humberside and BBC Radio Lincolnshire.

Paul is an avid Bradford City fan. Although Rutland and its scenery is a popular place for tourists, in contrast to Bradford, he still likes to accuse Rutland of being dull. In May 2006, Paul was elected honorary Mayor of Wetwang. This post was previous occupied by Richard Whiteley. He enjoys sea fishing, playing golf (he used to play at Riddlesden Golf Club), cricket (he played for Ingrow St Johns in the Craven League), and gives his footballing support to Bradford City. He and Lisa Gallagher like to remind Peter of his comparative lack of qualifications, as well as anything vaguely humorous that they can crank out on that day. Christa Ackroyd fares similarly on the Leeds-based Look North. Elly Fiorentini on Radio York also gets the sharp end of his humour. Paul married Nicola in 2003, who also works on Look North as a reporter in Hull. He has a daughter, Eloise, born in 2005.

Love-hate relationship with newsreaders

A favourite trick is to refer to an item in the news with any unglamourous attributes being fervently compared to the newsreader in situ.

  • After a story about an 11 foot python on the run in Sheffield in July 2003, he said Christa was big fat and slimy. This was featured in The Sun.
