Radar at 12/21 1804 currently shows the storm is parked offshore from Los Angeles (dumping quite a bit there). Still raining in Oxnard. #rain#CAwx#LosAngeles#SanDiego
So, the ghost in the HRRR machine puts totals near Santa Barbara (on 12/22/23 at 9am) at less than an Inch. But at 12/22/23 at 10am then says it thinks total accumulation will be 5 inches. It's likely a glitch (the HRRR accumulation algorithm), but I do wonder what's going to be correct. #mystery#HRRR#wx#weather#forecasting
It was a pleasure to present about forecasting at scale at the South Dakota State University Data Science Club meetup last month. The event recording is now available 👇🏼
The Collapse of Western Civilization: A View From the Future
This work is an important title that will change how readers look at the world. Dramatizing climate change in ways traditional nonfiction cannot, this inventive, at times humorous work reasserts the importance of scientists and the work they do and reveals the self-serving interests of the so called carbon industrial complex that have turned the practice of sound science into political fodder.
Working on a talk focusing on methods for analyzing and forecasting time series at scale. Having fun with Prof. Rob Hyndman's approach to analyzing multiple time series with dimension reduction for time series features with principle components 😍
I am excited to present today at the SDSU Data Science Club meetup on approaches for forecasting at scale. The event at 4 PM PST / 6 PM CDT is open to the public via Zoom, and you can register in the link below.
The timetk, one of the main R packages for time series analysis and forecasting ❤️, by Matt Dancho, is now available in Python 🐍. The package provides a variety of tools for working with time series data and analyzing it. The Python version leverages pandas for processing time series data and plotly for visualization.
I spent last night to build this fun Shinylive app - Forecasting Sandbox 😎
The app provides a simple sandbox for three simple forecasting models - Linear regression, ARIMA, and Holt-Winters, and it entirely runs on the browser!
I am planning to deploy it to Github Actions and create a tutorial (WIP) 👇🏼
"#Africa will seek to present itself as a solution to the global warming crisis in a declaration to be signed by heads of state on September 6 at the inaugural Africa Climate Summit in #Nairobi, Kenya.
African leaders committed to tripling the proportion of electricity generated from renewable sources to 60% by 2030 compared with the 2019 levels."
Significant investment in Africa’s adaptation to #ClimateChange, including better #forecasting, will be an urgent goal at the September 5-6 meeting. At the heart of every issue on the agenda, from energy to agriculture, is the lack of #data collection that drives decisions as crucial as when to plant – and when to flee."
I am excited to present in November at the Oredev Developer Conference in Sweden about forecasting and MLOps 🚀. In addition, I will run a workshop about forecasting methods with regression models ❤️.
The TSstudio package is one of the first #opensource projects I did. On my way to holiday break on December 2017, I was bored during a 12 hours flight and decided to package a few common #dataviz functions I love to use for time series data. A few days after, the first version was on CRAN. In the following year, I spent many hours enjoying developing additional functionalities and tools for #timeseries analysis and #forecasting
Weather Balloon Data Company Raises $6M in Seed Funds
A company creating a network of long-range high-altitude #balloons to expand the scope of global #weather#forecasting is raising $6 million in #seed funds.
