After one woman posted a link to a cheap dress on a Facebook group for female meteorologists, America's weather forecasts have been taken over.

The subtle fashion trend was first spotted on Reddit, after one user posted a link to an image titled 'This is what happens when you post a link to a $23 dress on Amazon that flatters everyone to a female meteorologist Facebook group'.

Link to the dress: <a rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0142M5M72/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0142M5M72&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=j0b21-20&amp;linkId=Y3FBZBEMWF76OFLE">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0142M5M72/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0142M5M72&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=j0b21-20&amp;linkId=Y3FBZBEMWF76OFLE</a>

With TV stations often having strict rules on what their presenters can wear, a well-priced, fit-for-television dress naturally went down well.

As a result, the dress has been popping up in weather forecasts from a number of different networks across the US.

Speaking to TechInsider, Shelby Hays, a meteorologist from Oklahoma said: "Someone stumbled onto 'the dress' and a few of us ordered it and shared pics of it on air in our group. Everyone saw how great it looked."

Hays added that a fellow forecaster, Jennifer Myers, has been updating the collage picture weekly as the popular dress sweeps the country.

It's not quite 'The Dress', but it certainly seems to be going viral in the meteorology community.

Keep your eyes peeled during the next weather forecast to see if it makes an appearance.
