Physics-Based Deep Spatiotemporal Hyperlocal Radar Nowcasting with a Multi-Variable U-Net for High-Resolution Precipitation Forecasting
Precipitation nowcasting over the immediate 10-90 min period is important for flood management and real-time decision-making in urban regions. Conventional short-range forecasting with high-resolution numerical weather prediction requires frequent data assimilation, model initialization, and spin-up, introducing computational latency. Machine learning provides an alternative by learning storm evolution directly from high-frequency observations and producing forecasts quickly after training. This is particularly relevant for Mumbai, India, where monsoon convection, land-sea interactions, and localized intense rainfall make short-term prediction difficult. Here, we develop a compact radar-o...
