Predicting extreme weather events allows governments to issue safety announcements and warnings and arrange evacuations. As a result, thousands of lives can be saved. Thankfully, extreme weather events don’t happen very often, although the US is one of the most affected countries in the world. As severe weather can be so dangerous, various technologies can be used to predict them. Topological data analysis (TDA) is one of the most exciting tools with the most potential in this area. Researchers have been using it for years to find weather patterns, and the data this yields can also help discover extreme incoming weather. So, just how does it work?
