AIFS-SUBS: Extending Data-Driven Forecasting to Sub-Seasonal Timescales

Data-driven models now rival numerical weather prediction in the medium range, but extending them to sub-seasonal lead times raises challenges absent at shorter horizons. Errors accumulate over long autoregressive rollouts, systematic biases grow with lead time, and several years of data must be held out for independent verification, even though machine-learning models otherwise benefit from longer training records.

Do AI weather models miss extremes?

arXiv:2608. 09972v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: First-generation AI weather models are often reported to underperform at extremes, mostly in reanalysis-based evaluations of deterministic regression systems.

Interpretable AI predicts a 2026 summer dry anomaly in central China

A deep learning model that converts dynamical circulation forecasts into precipitation estimates predicts a dry anomaly over central China in the summer of 2026, with consistent signals from March to May. Retrospective tests show the model performs best in analogue years marked by sustained central equatorial Pacific warming, which promotes a cyclonic circulation that drives northerly winds and moisture divergence, suppressing rainfall. Layer‑wise relevance propagation identifies these northerly winds as the key driver, and perturbation tests confirm that removing them eliminates the predicted dry anomaly, providing a physically interpretable explanation for the AI forecast.
