Learning joint probabilistic weather forecasts from station observations alone

Assessing compound weather risks requires forecasts representing dependence between variables. CLARA (Calibrated Advection-Routing Attention) learns joint Gaussian predictive distributions of five surface variables from station observations alone, without numerical weather prediction or reanalysis; the approximately 28,000-parameter model supports CPU training and prediction. Across six multi-year folds on 96 stations, its lead-mean energy score is 4.9% lower than that of a learned comparator with matched temporal inputs (4.7% with a similar parameter count) and 11-65% lower than those of statistical baselines. Holding marginal variances fixed, removing learned correlations worsens joint ...
