Sensor networks and the future of forecasting
Data and low-cost sensor networks can spot extreme weather before it hits.
Identifying extreme weather patterns can minimize impact when that weather arrives. But to improve long-range forecasts, we'll need to create environmental sensor networks out of phones, satellites and other technology.
