Prediction systems giving you the confidence to take action and protect your business from severe weather.

ConvectAlert's Vision

Severe weather prediction is tedious work that's historically been undertaken by highly skilled professionals. Despite massive improvements in numerical weather models in recent years, they still fundamentally fail to capture the tiny details that drive the most destructive severe weather.

We believe that less is more when it comes to severe weather forecasting. The emerging frontier of weather modelling involves combining traditional physics-based modelling with pattern-seeking functionality.

The future of severe weather modelling involves building systems that understand weather patterns better than even the most well-versed meteorologists, and doing it at a scale that no weather agency can compete with.

Here at ConvectAlert Analytics, we're building these systems from the ground-up so that in the near future, severe weather won't be such as mystery.
