WeatherForge

WeatherForge teaches meteorology as a **family of atmospheric processes** — pressure systems, air masses, fronts, storm formation, water cycle, and forecasting reasoning.

Level 1

Forecast Lab

Read a real synoptic panel — pressure, humidity, fronts, wind — and forecast tomorrow's high, precipitation, and wind. Then try Confidence Forecasting: give a percent-chance of rain and see how well-calibrated your confidence is.

Predict tomorrowForecast the high temp, precipitation & wind from the clues. Confidence ForecastingGive a percent-chance of rain — scored on how honest & well-calibrated it is.

Storm Builder

Every storm needs the right ingredients. Read a set of conditions and name the storm that forms, or set the sliders to spawn a hurricane, tornado, thunderstorm, or blizzard.

Classify the stormRead the conditions — which storm forms? Build a stormSet moisture, instability, wind & temperature to spawn the target storm.
