Give us it in feet and inches, Derek

AS the majority of the elderly can only instantly visualise the depth of rain water and snow if given in inches and feet, and as they are the group most affected by adverse weather conditions, I wonder if BBC Wales Today, most senior weather presenter, Derek Brockway, could tell us why he refuses to give such details in inches and feet, when he must know a large section of his listeners cannot instantly visualise such measurements in metric?
