Is AI Replacing The Weatherman?
NVIDIA and Google both say they have weather prediction systems better than those currently used by humans. The National Weather Service is already shrinking. AI may be an alternative.

S&P says EV sales will recover late in 2026. New models are the primary reason. However, is that going to overcome worries about the driving range and a lack of charging stations?
Tornado season has just started. It’s traditionally from March to June, when activity peaks nationwide. The NOAA reported 1,559 tornadoes last year. So, watch for at least 1,000 storms this year. Damages from tornadoes last year have been put at $11 billion. Climate Crisis247 explains.
According to the journal Nature, tides around the world are rising much faster than most scientists estimate. By the end of the century, the new correction to sea level data means 48–68% more people would be affected than currently assumed, pushing the total number at risk up to roughly 77–132 million people
Some parts of the south get heavy snowfall in March. Based on new forecasts, several of these will likely set records. Global warming is sending cold air south, even if that is unexpected. Climate Crisis247 explains
Tornado season is back. And. There may be some this weekend. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247 explains
Trump says that the US has so much natural gas and oil that a shortage from the Middle East war won’t matter. Unfortunately, much of the US energy is still in the ground. Douglas A. McIntyre Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247 explains
The war in the Middle East should push up oil prices. That’s not happening. The US is the world’s largest oil producer, and OPEC+ has promised more crude. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisi247, explains.
Much of the world’s natural gas is from the Middle East. The war should be driving down supply and costs up. However, many people don’t know that the US is the world’s largest natural gas producer. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
Green energy should be helped when oil prices are up. However, many green companies need to borrow money. Wars take the interest rate higher. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247 explains
Snow hit some places so hard this winter that commerce came to a standstill. Where did that happen? Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
US EV adoption appeared headed toward making the country one of the global leaders. However, that has stopped. Europe has pulled well ahead of us. Why? Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247 explains
Solar energy has become so inexpensive that it has passed wind as a source of energy. In the US, neither is doing well. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief at Climatecrisis247, explains.
The IEA says renewable energy use for electricity generation hit a record in the US last year. Trump tried to kill it off. Demand kept it going. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
Electricity prices are up by double digits year-over-year in 2025. Inside Climate News says this threatens the election chances of Republicans and Trump. Voters are angry. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
The long-term effects of the war are really due to the destruction of oil and gas infrastructure, which could take years to repair. Where will the world find new energy? Renewables are among the only answers. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
It’s a new promise for voters who worry AI data centers won’t drive up electricity prices. Renewables may get a boost to make it happen. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
Some cities in the south recently hit all-time records, and they are remarkably high. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
Winter is getting longer in some parts of the nation. That’s unusual. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247 explains
Crude prices at $100 make it much less attractive for home and enterprise use. That brings solar, which is much less expensive, back into consideration, no matter what Trump has done to harm it. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
Drought is cutting the coffee bean crop in Brazil. Flood is killing cocoa trees in West Africa. Drought is cutting the number of beef cattle. Less supply, more expense. Douglas A. McIntyre, Editor-In-Chief of Climatecrisis247, explains.
