Most global weather models aren’t able to forecast beyond 0.1 and 0.5 degree resolution, which makes it challenging to offer useful forecasts in areas with variable terrain like bodies of water, mountains, and other forms of elevation. ⛰️ Today, conventional (physics-based)

"WindBorne's atmospheric data is useful for world governments, which spend approximately $10 billion annually on weather observation. WindBorne's growth is slated to kick up with this past February's launch of WeatherMesh, an AI-forecasting model that's set accuracy records.
