In the post, the Microsoft Start team said it has been working on improving its \"precipitation forecasting\" system worldwide since the end of 2021. The model will not only use data collected by radar devices, but will also incorporate satellite data, which will be analyzed by AI algorithms to more accurately predict precipitation.
