Predicting Weather About To Be Easier Thanks To Md. Computer

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — A smarter computer is promising better predictions of dangerous weather.

Alex DeMetrick reports that faster information is downloading right here in Maryland.

The old joke about the weather changing every 20 minutes in Maryland is no joke when time is needed to get out of the way of the worst kinds of weather.

NOAA’s Weather and Climate Prediction Center in College Park is working to increase that warning time. A new super computer upgrade is making it the forecasting center for the nation.

“That then can take all of that information and put it all together into essentially a one-stop shop,” said Senator Barbara Mikulski.
