Five-step program for making weather forecast

The five-step process of making weather forecast is data collection, numerical weather forecast, weather forecast made by meteorologists, weather consultation and release of weather forecast. ?

Data collection and observation instruments such as sounding balloons, meteorological radars, ground observation stations and meteorological satellites are distributed all over the world, receiving the latest data at all times and providing basis for weather forecast. The supercomputer will process the collected data and generate numerical weather forecast, which will provide reference for forecasters to forecast the weather.

According to the observed data, numerical weather forecast provided by supercomputer and local weather and climate characteristics, meteorologists make weather forecast for a certain period in the future.

Because the numerical weather forecast is not completely correct, it needs manual correction. General weather forecast will be discussed before it is released, that is, weather consultation. After the weather forecast is made, it will be released to the public through TV and Internet.
