NOAA is using those traditional forecasting models as frameworks for its new AI forecasting systems. The agency has estimated that the AI programs will require between 91% and 99% less computing resources than traditional models, while at the same time extending the life of a particular forecast, potentially by as much as 18 or 24 hours.

The National Weather Service uses Cold Weather Alerts to delineate the degrees of danger associated with cold temperatures. These alerts are relative to the parts of the country where they are issued,

Weather forecasting is one of the most advanced sciences on Earth. But it’s also one of the most complex and humbling. Here's how it works:

The National Weather Service on Friday issued a rare warning for part of Colorado's Front Range as hurricane-force winds and tinder dry conditions boosted the threat of wildfire across several counties,

The Trump administration announced plans to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado.

The strongest wind gusts are expected later Friday morning as a cold front sweeps across the state. Strong winds will continue through Friday evening.

A NEXT Weather Alert is in effect Thursday for a little snow but a lot of wind and cold that could cause roads to freeze up across the Twin Cities.

Coastal areas will warm into the 50s and 60s early behind the front. Triad temperatures will likely remain cool through the afternoon. Temperatures will then climb into the 50s Thursday evening and through late Thursday night, and may even reach 60 degrees in the eastern Triad overnight.
