The 2025 BC fire season area burned (872k ha) has moved into 5th place with the recent fire activity. This means that the top 6 fire seasons have been since 2017 (records go back to 1950) Area burned-red bars (2017-2025 graph below) far exceeds the green bars (1950-2016). Climate change in action.

Fully AI driven weather prediction system could start revolution in forecasting A new AI weather prediction system, Aardvark Weather, can deliver accurate forecasts tens of times faster and using thousands of times less computing power t

๐ŸŒค๏ธ Our #AI weather forecasting model has been published today in Nature ๐Ÿค–

๐Ÿฅ‡the first AI weather model to learn directly from raw environmental observations

๐ŸŒŽ compared to existing AI models it is cheaper to train, uses less carbon and easier to deploy locally
