The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has chosen Tomorrow.io to aid the Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC), which is foundational to the agency's weather forecasting operations. This collaboration will deliver software infrastructure, engineering solutions, and user assistance as NOAA progresses its Unified Forecast System (UFS), aimed at harmonizing atmospheric, oceanic, and terrestrial models. Established in 2019, EPIC fosters cooperation between government entities, academic institutions, and private sector players. Tomorrow.io will also facilitate the integration of the Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS), enhancing the modeling of various weather phenomena from thunderstorms and tornadoes to hurricanes and broader climatic trends. This initiative is anticipated to bolster forecasting accuracy and improve early warning systems.

00:00NOAA has selected Tomorrow.io to support its next-generation weather forecasting efforts.
00:05The partnership focuses on NOAA's Earth Prediction Innovation Center, known as EPIC.
00:10EPIC was established in 2019 to improve collaboration in weather research and forecasting.
00:16Tomorrow.io will provide software infrastructure, engineering, and user support for the program.
00:22The company will also help integrate the model for prediction across scales, or MPS.
00:27MPAS will become a key engine within NOAA's Unified Forecast System.
00:32The system combines atmosphere, ocean, and land modeling in one framework.
00:37It is designed to improve forecasts across different weather and climate timescales.
00:41That includes thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, and major global weather patterns.
00:46NOAA says the effort will accelerate the transition from research into operational forecasting.
00:52The partnership is also aimed at strengthening early warnings for extreme weather and water events.
00:58The work marks another step toward a more unified Earth system modeling approach.
