What is the origin of the weather forecast?

The weather forecast originated from a naval battle in the19th century.

1854165438+1October 14. Britain and France are at war with Russia. When the fleet of the British and French allied forces attacked the Russian army on the Black Sea, a storm suddenly appeared, and the attack plan was destroyed by fierce winds and waves, and the British and French allied forces suffered heavy losses.

French Emperor Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte ordered the Paris Observatory to investigate the matter. Astronomer Le Ye Wei collected relevant meteorological data and found that the culprit was low pressure. The depression first moved in the western ocean of Europe, and then moved to the southeast. When it traveled to the Black Sea, it caused this disaster. Later, Le Ye Wei proposed to set up a meteorological observation network to inform the front of possible weather conditions and play a role in forecasting the weather. This is the earliest weather forecast. Soon after, France and Britain officially started the work of weather forecasting, and soon spread to the whole world.
