What do you mean by the term weather? How is forecasting done?
Answers
The weather is the condition of the atmosphere in one area at a particular time, for example if it is raining, hot, or windy.
Weather is forecasted by taking measurements of various atmospheric conditions and formulating an interpretation of how these atmospheric conditions will react with each other. These measurements include how much moisture is in the air, the air temperature and the air pressure, plus others from numerous ground locations as well as vertically above those locations.
In addition satellite data is used to understand cloud cover and direction of air mass movements.
Finally, simulations of what could happen are developed on computers that integrate data from the past and look what weather was generated by similar conditions in the past such that it can be used as a guide to what can happen currently. From this mass of data collection and simulation by computers, a forecast is developed.
This forecast is an integration of the measured physical conditions of the atmosphere using the remotely electronically measured data as well as ground station data to create a physical model that predicts airmass movement and interactions.
In general a forecast improves dramatically when predicting soon to happen weather events. Generally a forecast of the weather that is greater than 3 or 4 days away has a probability of being accurate of less than 50 percent.
That in a nutshell is how weather forecasts are created.
