Numerical Weather Prediction Bill was one of the earliest believers in the potential of numerical weather prediction in the southern hemisphere and held firm views as to how numerical systems should be migrated from the research to the operational environment. His foresight in providing opportunities for overseas study and experience by a number of young Bureau meteorologists who were to later emerge as international leaders in the field has served Australia extremely well.
