The Whether Man likes to twist words around and giving them new meanings: "I'm the Whether Man, not the Weather Man, for after all it's more important to know whether there will be weather than what the weather will be" . The Whether Man reflects his name on many levels. He brings out the idea of uncertainty which also reflects the uncertainty that can be found in the weather.
