NOAA Shifts to AI for Weather Forecasting: The Future of Meteorology

Doug McIntyre reports on NOAA’s decision to adopt AI-driven weather forecasting, a shift that could outperform traditional physics-based models. NOAA’s move to invest in AI technology indicates a growing trust in artificial intelligence’s ability to predict weather more accurately. However, this advancement raises concerns about job losses for human forecasters. If AI proves superior in forecasting dangerous weather events like storms and tornadoes, it could replace the traditional methods and lead to workforce reductions in the meteorology field.
