NOAA predicts a below-average 2026 Atlantic hurricane season due to El Niño, but warns that even quiet years can produce catastrophic storms. The agency is deploying AI weather models developed with Google DeepMind to improve hurricane track predictions.
Mosaic is a probabilistic weather model that matches state-of-the-art skill while generating a 24-member, 10-day global forecast in under 12 seconds on a single H100.
WeatherNext, an AI model from Google DeepMind, helped the National Hurricane Center predict Hurricane Melissa's rapid intensification and Category 5 landfall in Jamaica five days in advance, enabling earlier warnings and evacuations.
This paper introduces SynopticBench, a dataset of 1.3M+ weather forecast discussions paired with meteorological images, and SPACE, a novel evaluation framework for assessing VLM-generated weather forecasts.
Google DeepMind's AI model provided earlier warnings for Hurricane Melissa, showcasing AI's potential to revolutionize weather forecasting and save lives through improved prediction of extreme events.
Google DeepMind has open-sourced WeatherNext 2, its most advanced global weather and cyclone forecasting model, along with prior models GraphCast and GenCast, providing code and pretrained weights.
Google DeepMind's WeatherNext AI model accurately predicted the intensification of 2025's Hurricane 'Melissa' into a Category 5 hurricane and its landfall in Jamaica three days in advance, issuing early warnings that likely saved many lives.
