This #ECMWF blog post gives such interesting insight into the differences between physics-based and AI-based weather forecasting.

The AI version of ECMWFβ€˜s IFS model had a better 2-meter temperature during high-pressure winter conditions in this study over southern Germany. This was linked to a better representation of low-level cloud cover.

Pleased to see that the comms team of my employer @ECMWF has joined the Fediverse! Give them a follow if you want to get updates on some of our activities, including @CopernicusECMWF, #DestinE or the machine learning forecast model #AIFS.

Our #ECMWF machine learning weather forecast is public! 🌦️

Right on time for the weekend, too!

It's an alpha version for now, because the whole team is working hard to wrestle every iota of performance from our graph NN #AIFS.

But even as an alpha version, it's playing in the big leagues.

I am so excited to finally share this with you! πŸš€

I'll link our blog post and the forecast below. Make sure to share this with your colleagues and machine-learning-curious friends!

Still can't believe how far these people have made it in this short time, running four machine learning models operationally, with one developed in-house.
