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 ...

Several factors play a crucial role in shaping the Sunday forecast. McCormick points out: High and Low Pressure Systems: These systems influence wind patterns and precipitation levels. A high-pressure ...

AI matches daily forecasts like never before, but when it comes to heat, cold, and wind records, HRES physics rules.

This is the first in a series of interviews exploring how artificial intelligence is affecting a range of fields in science, engineering, and medicine. Amy McGovern leads the NSF AI Institute for ...

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 ...

You're about to walk your dog, but the sky looks ominous. You pull out your phone, open your favorite weather app, and see that it's about to pour. You wait for the rain to pass. Or maybe you planned ...

Increasingly powerful AI models can make short-term weather forecasts with surprising accuracy. But neural networks only predict based on patterns from the past—what happens when the weather does ...

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 ...
