weather simulation
Atmospheric condition prediction
Weather simulation is the use of computer models to replicate atmospheric conditions and predict how weather systems will develop.
Meteorologists run simulations to forecast storms, temperature changes, and precipitation patterns.
The term also applies to weather effects in video games and flight simulators: The game's weather simulation includes realistic thunderstorms and fog.
