Lars Lowinski
Lars grew up in eastern Belgium, an area with plenty of windy and wet, but sometimes also quite exciting weather such as high winds, heavy snow and thunderstorms. This sparked his love for weather at an early age. After studying geography at RWTH Aachen, he worked as a forecaster and editor in Munich and Austria, with some model development at times as well.
This was followed by several years working as a consulting meteorologist in the UK, where he not only learned a lot about the British obsession with weather, but also about the intricacies of proper (cream) tea as well. Lars joined WetterOnline in 2019 as a Country Manager to help grow our business in the US.
As a Chartered Meteorologist, he is also involved in delivering meteorological training, weather risk communication and writing cases studies about weather events. When he is not in weather geek mode, he loves to be outside doing photography.

Ditte Nielsen
Since her childhood days of biking to school in howling winds on the rainy flatlands of Northern Denmark, weather has always played a central role in Ditte’s life. Still to this day, nothing feels as much like home as icy gales loaded with sand and sea salt.
Ditte graduated from The Danish School of Media and Journalism and worked in investigative journalism and documentary film production in Copenhagen before she found the sweet spot between weather, tech and communications at Weather & Radar.
