Weather forecasting is getting cheaper and more accurate. An AI model named Aurora used machine learning to outperform current weather prediction systems, researchers report May 21 in Nature. Aurora ...

Meteorologists frequently mention weather prediction models in their forecasts. They explain what they’re gleaning from the “U.S. Model,” for instance, and how that might differ from the “European ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I am a risk communicator focused on the impact of weather on business. Jul 15, 2025, 08:30am EDT The combination of AI, advanced ...

Gray swan events are extreme weather events that cause local devestation, like Hurricane Lee in 2023, shown here. Increasingly powerful AI models can make short-term weather forecasts with surprising ...

It was only a generation or two ago that weather forecasts were not to be taken too seriously: funny-guy meteorologists on the local news wisecracking about ruined golf plans. That has long stopped ...

When supply chain practitioners think about forecasting, they focus on demand forecasting. Demand forecasting is essential, but the number of different forecasts that an effective organization should ...

ECMWF has been developing the Artificial Intelligence Forecasting System (AIFS) to run side by side with its traditional physics-based Integrated Forecasting System (IFS) to advance numerical weather ...

A significant upgrade to the global weather system used by the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts to produce ...

Mud and debris as atmospheric rivers dumped rain in Studio City, Calif., in 2024. Forecasting heavy rain requires measurements from satellites, doppler radar, ocean buoys and other instruments, most ...

AI outperforms traditional weather forecasting in many cases. But a new study shows that when it matters most, current AI ...

Scientists found that neural networks cannot yet forecast 'gray swan' weather events, which might not appear in existing training data but could still happen -- like 200-year floods or massive ...
