weather forecasting

Microsoft Research has published Probabilistic Bias Correction (PBC) in Nature and released it as open-source software. The researchers report it improved a leading ECMWF physics-based model for 98% of precipitation targets and 92% of temperature targets at 2–6 week lead times, and that it runs on CPUs.

Google DeepMind and Google Research released WeatherNext 3, a global weather AI model that ingests live geostationary satellite data to produce hourly forecasts at up to 5-kilometer resolution — five times sharper than its predecessor, WeatherNext 2. The model is now integrated into Google Search, Maps, Gemini, Google Maps Platform, and Cloud.
