Microclimate Forecasting & Site-Level Data

Standard forecasts cover broad areas. WeatherEdge provides microclimate forecasting at the site level, accounting for terrain, elevation, urban heat islands, water body proximity, and local wind patterns. A construction site at 1,200 feet elevation on a north-facing slope experiences different conditions than the valley floor 3 miles away. WeatherEdge models these differences using high-resolution terrain data and local sensor networks. Key site-level outputs: temperature (high/low/feels-like), precipitation probability and accumulation, wind speed and gusts, visibility, and ground condition (frozen/saturated/dry). These drive operational decisions: pour concrete today or wait? Forecast accuracy improves with feedback. When users report actual conditions, the system incorporates corrections. Over time each site develops a custom accuracy profile.
