It’s early, but a hurricane could threaten the Gulf Coast not this weekend but next. We are just past the peak of hurricane season, and a potential storm in the Gulf of Mexico has caught the attention of weather models. While it is still a week out, and...
As extreme weather events increase in frequency and severity, accurate weather forecasting has become critical in shaping legal and insurance strategies. SEEDS (Scalable Ensemble Envelope Diffusion Sampler), a new AI-powered weather forecasting model developed by...
This map shows the estimated rainfall of the future hurricane headed toward the South. Most people do not think about Safety First and the Role of Forensic Meteorologists in spreading the message. As a hurricane barrels toward the Gulf Coast, millions of residents are...

Science continues to evolve at a rapid pace, and I think this development is cool. In a time when our shifting weather patterns demand urgent and informed action, NASA and IBM have teamed up to create a tool that could transform how we predict and respond to weather...
