Weather Prediction
Weather prediction is the estimation of the
conditions of the atmosphere for a given location and time. Weather predictions
are made by collecting quantitative data about the current state of the
atmosphere, land, and ocean and using meteorology to project how the atmosphere
will change at a given place. Weather prediction relies on computer-based
models that take many atmospheric factors under consideration.
The
weather warning is an essential feature of a weather forecast. It enables the
area under the threat of severe weather conditions to evacuate. It also alerts
the authorities to take proper measures to avoid a cataclysm. Temperature
forecasts are imperative to the agriculture sector. It impacts the crop to be
implanted in the coming days.
In short, weather forecasting includes a prediction
of changes on Earth's surface caused by atmospheric conditions; snow and ice
cover, storm tides, and floods.
