What's a weather forecast?
A weather forecast predicts future atmospheric conditions using scientific data and computer models. Meteorologists gather information from satellites, radar, and weather stations to understand current patterns and project how they will evolve. The story's summary is a classic example, predicting rain, wind, and temperature changes based on these methods.
