The first machine learning (ML) weather forecasting models are now operational. These models are often superior to numerical weather forecasting models, and are much cheaper to run. These technological advances open up a range of research questions on the use of these models and their forecasts. The workshop will consist of presentations, a discussion and a tutorial on running an ML weather forecasting model yourself. We will have presentations on ML for weather forecasting and downscaling and a discussion on the new possibilities that come from the machine learning models. We are also inviting mini presentations from participants on ongoing work.
