AI weather models show promise but struggle with extreme heat prediction

A new arXiv paper evaluates six deep learning weather emulators, including Pangu-Weather, FuXi, ArchesWeather, AIFS, GraphCast, and Aurora, against traditional physics-based models for predicting extreme heat events. While some AI models show comparable deterministic temperature skill, they may sacrifice spectral fidelity. The study found that while AI models can predict extreme heat, they often underrepresent peak intensities, and traditional models like IFS demonstrated higher recall. AI

IMPACT AI models show potential for extended-range temperature prediction but require further development to accurately forecast extreme heat intensities.
