... numerical weather prediction models are one of the most important tools for forecasters. The models, using many millions of numbers that represent weather parameters such as temperature, pressure, wind, etc., attempt to represent current weather conditions and then make a prediction of the future state of the atmosphere. 4, record 1, English, - numerical%20weather%20prediction%20model
