Executive Summary
- •In October 2025, the system predicted with 80 percent confidence that a Caribbean storm would hit Jamaica as a Category 5 hurricane five days before landfall.
- •The AI gives forecasters an extra day of lead time, meaning its three-day predictions are as accurate as previous models' two-day forecasts.
- •Researchers scaled the system to generate 1,000 potential storm scenarios, up from 50 last year, while running on lower-resolution atmospheric data.
