Tropical cyclones could be predicted with an extra day’s warning, thanks to an AI model

Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence model called WeatherNext Cyclones (WN-C) that can improve tropical cyclone forecasting by providing an extra day of warning. The model addresses the difficulty of predicting rapidly evolving weather systems using conventional meteorological methods.
Why it matters
Enhanced forecasting capabilities for hurricanes and typhoons can significantly reduce loss of life and property damage globally.
