AI can predict if it will rain in two hours' time

Artificial intelligence can tell whether it is going to rain in the next two hours, a research suggests.

Traditional methods use complex equations and often forecast for only between six hours and two weeks' time. The AI system can make more accurate short-term predictions, including for critical storms and floods.

Climate change is making it harder to anticipate adverse weather conditions, as the frequency and severity of heavy rain increases, which researchers believe will lead to both significant material damage and death.
