HiRO-ACEv2 3km Weather Model Released
What you need to know
Hugging Face and Ai2 released HiRO-ACEv2, a weather model whose new HiROv2 downscaling component predicts multiple high-resolution fields simultaneously and reproduces X-SHiELD's high-resolution statistics to within 3%, according to the two organizations. The model simulates extreme weather at 3 km resolution at what the release describes as a fraction of the cost. The 3% match is a claim made by the developers in their release, not an independently verified benchmark.
