Medium-range forecasting refers to the prediction of weather conditions over a period of about 3 to 10 days. This type of forecasting uses numerical weather models and observational data to provide insights into upcoming weather patterns, such as temperature, precipitation, and wind. It is particularly useful for planning activities that depend on weather, like agriculture and outdoor events. Meteorologists rely on various tools and techniques, including satellite imagery and radar, to enhance the accuracy of medium-range forecasts. While these forecasts are generally more reliable than long-range predictions, they can still be affected by changing atmospheric conditions, making them less precise than short-term forecasts.
