High Reliability Organizations Need Weather Intelligence
What are High Reliability Organizations? High Reliability Organizations (HROs) are organizations operating in complex, high-risk environments where potential accidents, errors, delays, etc. could have significant consequences, but they can effectively prevent such unwanted occurrences through maintaining high levels of safety. HROs rely on five core characteristics: “preoccupation with failure,” “reluctance to simplify,” “sensitivity to operations,”… Continue reading High Reliability Organizations Need Weather Intelligence
Weather Intelligence for Utility Companies
Power Outages Due to Extreme Weather Events Over the past 20 years, power outages due to extreme weather events have doubled in the United States, costing the country an average of $20 to $50 billion annually. The estimated cost of a potential one-hour power outage across Turkey is approximately $5 million. While end-users are directly… Continue reading Weather Intelligence for Utility Companies
How Is Weather Forecast Accuracy Measured?
In weather forecasting, accuracy is measured similarly to forecasts in many different sectors. This means that specific statistical measurements determine the accuracy of weather forecasts. Calculating forecast accuracy gives an idea of how to proceed with the next forecasts. Let’s look at what “accuracy” and “precision,” which are often confused, are. Accuracy vs Precision Accuracy… Continue reading How Is Weather Forecast Accuracy Measured?
Extreme Weather Events and Their Effects
When sudden storms, floods, heatwaves, and other extreme weather conditions occur, they can cause a variety of problems. Extreme weather events, meteorological events that can cause widespread power outages or damage, significantly affect our lives, from personal safety concerns to economic obligations. It’s important not to forget that the effects of climate change are making… Continue reading Extreme Weather Events and Their Effects
