Climate Central: The U.S., which pioneered the groundbreaking science of weather forecasting using mathematical simulations of the atmosphere, has fallen behind other nations when it comes to the accuracy of its global forecasting model. The consequences could be dire for people in harm's way if the U.S. is less prepared for extreme weather and climate events. The emerging "modeling gap' could erode the accuracy of U.S. weather forecasts and also cause greater economic losses from weather events. A 2011 study...
