Increasingly, AI models are able 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 ...

Throughout history, weather has played a quiet but powerful role in shaping events. While it’s often treated as background noise to bigger historical forces—like war, politics, or religion—weather can ...

Financial losses due to extreme weather events such as wildfire, floods, and winter storms are increasing. The insurance and recovery system in the U.S. is increasingly unable to respond to the ...

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 ...

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 ...
