She expertly switches between Channel 4 and Channel 7 as many times as she can during the 90 seconds or so that each station presents its nightly weathercast. Joan Field isn't interested in getting the most up-to-date forecasts, she just wants to watch both of her favorite TV weathermen, who are on the air at the same time. On Channel 4 NBC's flagship station in New York City the forecasts are delivered by her husband, Frank Field. On Channel 7 ABC's standard-bearer predictions for the next day's outlook come from her son. Storm Field.

They don't always jibe. TWENTY SEVEN i-YEAR-old Storm was hired last March as WABC medical-science reporter a position his father holds at WNBC. A trained meteorologist, like his father, Storm stepped in front of the cameras as a weatherman for the first time when Hurricane Belle struck Long Island in August and WABC's regular weatherman, Tex Antoine, was ill. Storm did such a good job that the station asked him to continue doing the 11 p.m. and weekend forecasts.

Storm admits that when he was faced with that first on-the-air weathercast, he relied on the methods and mannerisms he had seen his father using for so many years. And, even after weeks on the air, there is still a close resemblance between the way the Fields deliver their predictions. Both believe in straightforward presentation of the weather, eschewing gimmicks and wisecracks that they say many untrained weathermen use to cover up their lack of knowledge about "TENDER FLESH" CHILLING STORY OF CANNIBALISM THE 2QTH CENTURY (R) Dr. Frank Field (left) and his son Storm have the same job medical-science reporter for rival television networks, NBC and ABC, respectively. Both are trained meteorologists.

The elder Field pioneered television reporting in the field, and their on-the-air mannerisms and philosophies closely resemble each other. They insist there's a friendly rivalry. K-MART SHOPPING PLAZA. RT. 35 739-9697 I.D.

Storm believes that much of his success is due to "being in the right place at the right time." But he also gives much credit to his father a role model he emulates both personally and professionally. "People look at him." Storm says of Frank, "and they say, 'There's a real gentleman.

He's honest, he knows what he's talking They also say, 'Hey, if the old man's OK, then the kid must be OK. too' THE NAME on his birth certificate is Elliot David Field, but he has been called Storm since he was a baby and that's the name on his bank accounts, credit cards and other legal documents. He says he was born on a stormy Thanksgiving night and was "very active in the womb the doctor kept saying to my mother, 'That's such a stormy Despite their good father-son relationship and similar scientific and medical advances. He occasionally does reports for he network's "Today" show and innovative pieces for the local's "NewsCenter 4" program. One was a live telecast of a kidney transplant that won him the New York State Broadcasters Association Award as best public affairs program by a New York City television station.

It prompted responses from prospective kidney donors. STORM'S background is essentially the same as his father's. He practiced optometry for several months in Portland, Maine, before returning to New York. Through his father, he met the head of a television features syndication firm and was asked if he would like to do some features on medicine and science. After some of his work appeared through the syndicate, an independent station in the city hired him as a free-lance reporter.

Sometimes you try to give him a nudge if he needs it, of course, but if you're working on something big you don't tell him. "One of the most disheartening things is I'll do something I'm really proud of and I'll think is good and I'll call home and ask his mother, 'Did you see my and she'll say, 'Oh, no, I was watching Storm practically revels in the competition. He goes out to Long Island to have dinner with his folks every now and then, "and of course we can't help but talk about things. Sometimes we get into big arguments about the way to handle stories. But we rarely work on the same thing at the same time there's so much to cover." ON SOME major breaking stories, however, the Fields do work on the same thing like the outbreak of "legionnaires' disease." "I wiped him out on that one," Storm says with a big grin, noting that WABC sent him to Philadelphia the very night the story broke, while WNBC waited nearly four days before sending Frank to Atlanta for a catch-up show from the federal Center for Disease Control.
