Microsoft AI weather forecast faster, cheaper, truer: Study
- Microsoft released Aurora, an AI model that predicts weather and air quality faster and more accurately as detailed on May 21, 2025.
- Aurora was developed using over a million hours of historical information gathered from various observation platforms and predictive models to enhance the accuracy of weather forecasts.
- Aurora surpassed seven forecasting centers by accurately predicting all hurricanes in 2023 and anticipated Typhoon Doksuri’s arrival in the Philippines nearly four days before it occurred.
- Microsoft says Aurora generates forecasts in seconds using less computing power than traditional systems that require hours on supercomputers.
- Aurora’s success could shift weather prediction methods worldwide by enabling faster, cheaper forecasting with implications for disaster management and daily life.

Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence Gave Classic Weather Models a Head Start
Microsoft researchers have unveiled a new AI-based weather forecasting model, Aurora, that can predict tropical cyclone tracks, air quality, and general weather more accurately and much faster than current state-of-the-art systems. However, classic weather models are not about to be forgotten.
This AI Model Surpassed Traditional Methods for Weather Forecasting
Microsoft developed a model of artificial intelligence (IA) that managed to obtain more accurate weather forecasts and at a lower cost than the traditional models used by the main international agencies, according to results published this week in the scientific journal Nature.The new model, called Aurora, has not been commercialized, but managed to generate 10-day weather forecasts as well as precise hurricane paths.Microsoft's Aurora did so wi…
Microsoft's Aurora AI predicts weather events with 89% accuracy in new climate forecasting tool
What to knowMicrosoft has launched Aurora AI, a new artificial intelligence system capable of predicting air quality, typhoons, and other weather events with up to 89% accuracy.Aurora AI outperforms traditional forecasting methods by 23% and can provide predictions up to 10 days in advance.The system uses a combination of satellite imagery, historical weather data, and machine learning to make its predictions.Microsoft has announced the launch o…
