Google open-sources WeatherNext weather model, typhoon forecasts average a day earlier
Google DeepMind has released the code and model weights for its WeatherNext 2 and WeatherNext Cyclones weather AI models. Taiwan outlet iThome reported that WeatherNext Cyclones provided forecasts more than 24 hours earlier than major existing models at the same accuracy level when predicting tropical cyclone tracks, intensity and wind field ranges. A Nature study said WeatherNext’s three-day forecasts matched the accuracy of older models’ two-day forecasts.
