Frank Field, who as a meteorologist brought a groundbreaking credential to his job as a television weather forecaster in New York, and who also had a long career presenting network programs on science and medicine, died on Saturday in Florida. His death was announced by WNBC-TV in New York, where Dr. Field began his broadcast career in 1958. Dr. Field, a presence on New York and network television for more than 40 years, was not the city’s first popular TV forecaster. Ms. Reed signed off her nightly reports on WCBS-TV with a cheery “Have a happy.” Both enjoyed long runs on television. “Weather forecasting used to be in a class with reporting real estate transactions for the newspaper,” Dr. Field told The New Yorker for a 1966 profile.
