Google's WeatherNext 3 learns weather from satellite data, skipping physics sims
The Decoder · rss · 2026-09-06
Google Research and DeepMind have released WeatherNext 3, a weather model that skips traditional physics simulations and learns directly from real-time satellite data.
It produces hourly forecasts at up to 5-kilometer resolution — five times more detailed than its predecessor. Google says regions in Africa, Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific that have lacked accurate forecasts should see the biggest gains.
