Since the lewd social media comments have been exposed, Higgins Storm Chasing founder Jeff Higgins has issued a public apology

A popular weather forecasting Facebook page has issued a grovelling apology after it launched a fowl-mouthed rant at one of its followers who suggested the predictions were inaccurate.

Higgins Storm Chasing, a social media page dedicated to revealing the latest weather forecasts in Queensland, has come under fire after it threatened to 'cave the head in' of one of its followers and labelled them a 'c***'.

A woman who shared screenshots of the comments said the vile remarks had been made by Facebook administrators of the page over a 12-month period.

The abuse spiralled out of control after one user accused the Facebook page of 'fear mongering'.

'I'm sure you made plenty of money with your fear mongering,' they wrote.

To which the Facebook page, which has almost 800,000 followers, responded: 'F**k you c***' and took the threatening tone one step further and added: 'Say it to my face so I can cave your head in'.

Other abusive messages, obtained by The Courier Mail, were also sent to various users.

Another tirade of abusive comments saw the Facebook page write: 'Merry kiss my a***e w***er' and call someone a 'sk**k'

One obscene message read: 'Get your f***ing facts straight you lying c****'.

While another referred to a commentator as a 'sk**k'.

A third said: 'Merry kiss my a***e w***er'.

Since the lewd social media comments have been exposed, Higgins Storm Chasing founder Jeff Higgins has issued a public apology.

'I wish to offer an unreserved apology to anyone who has been affected or offended by my or other administrator's comments or private messages.

'The language we have used is unacceptable and should never be used either publicly or privately,' he said.

Mr Higgins said the business was 'deeply regretful' for what had been written, and added that the company was working to construct a better strategy for dealing with 'abuse' they receive from members.

'I am very appreciative of the support we do receive, and I wish to thank everyone who supports our work and passion for weather.

'I and my team are looking forward to providing a better service to our customers and greater public,' his statement concluded.
