New WxFM-XL model enhances multi-station weather forecasting

Researchers have developed WxFM-XL, a novel model designed to adapt univariate time series foundation models for multi-station weather forecasting. This approach addresses limitations in existing models by incorporating spatial information between weather stations and accounting for varying error priors specific to each station. WxFM-XL utilizes a cross-station error correlation prior graph and a dynamic fusion mechanism that integrates spatial correlations, outperforming current baseline methods in experiments. AI

IMPACT This model could improve the accuracy and spatial understanding of weather forecasts by leveraging advanced time series foundation models.

    WxFM-XL: Adapting Univariate Foundation Models to Multi-Station Weather Forecasting

    arXiv:2610.10057v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the rise of univariate time series foundation models (e.g., Sundial, Timer), initial efforts have been made to extend them to multivariate settings. However, these models mainly focus on modeling correlations among variables. W…
