These forecast models use physics-based capabilities to simulate atmospheric conditions to arrive at a forecast, a process known as Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP).

Time and again, we’ve learned the value of improving the “resolution” of our numerical models, say, describing the weather on a grid where the points are separated by 15 km instead of 30 km.

In 2015, a paper in Nature titled “The Quiet Revolution of Numerical Weather Prediction” noted that, in the past forty years, the accuracy of three- to ten-day forecasts has been increasing by ...

Schumer said the vital import of the work the weather service does, especially considering the devastating flooding in Texas, ...

Numerical weather prediction has gotten a lot better since its implementation, but it isn’t 100% just yet. (This is why meteorologists have a job and will continue to have a job, as 100% ...
