Paul David Hudson (born 27 February 1971) is an English weather presenter for BBC Yorkshire and BBC Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Hudson was born and raised in Keighley, West Yorkshire.

After reading geophysics and planetary physics at Newcastle University, he joined the Met Office and did two years at Leeds Weather Centre. He combined this with a two-year stint as a weather presenter for BBC Look North and for the BBC local radio stations in Leeds, York, Humberside and Sheffield.

Paul Hudson is known for his tongue-in-cheek banter with BBC Look North anchor Harry Gration, and also Peter Levy, presenter of BBC Look North for Lincolnshire.

Hudson was born in Keighley, West Riding of Yorkshire, on the same day as Derren Brown.

His parents bought him his first 'kids weather centre' when he was seven. He went to the Brontë Middle School and Oakbank School on Oakworth Road in Keighley.

He has a first-class degree in Geophysics and Planetary Physics from the University of Newcastle. His early memories of local weather forecasting came from fellow Yorkshireman, Doncaster's Bob Rust.

He did his training at the former site of the Met Office College, the former RAF Shinfield in Shinfield, in the same year as Liz Bentley, the current Chief Executive of the Royal Meteorological Society.
