Atomic Frontier | Weird ways to predict the weather @AtomicFrontier | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
Weather forecasts are an essential part of the modern world, but how did we get here? We explore a dome of mathematicians, a butterfly-beating supercomputer, and some very smart leeches.
Covering some of the contributions of Dr George Merryweather, Vice-Admiral Robert FitzRoy, Prof Vilhelm Bjerknes, Dr Lewis Fry Richardson, Dr Joanne Simpson, Prof Edward Lorenz, and Geralt of Leechia.

Hi, I'm James. I explore the world looking for interesting engineering stories which explore complex issues in interesting ways. I hold a First-Class Honors in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Western Australia and am currently studying a Masters of Space Systems Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
My website is atomicfrontieronline.com, I occasionally tweet from twitter.com/AtomicFrontiers, and you can join the Atomic Frontier Discord server to talk about cool engineering stuff at discord.gg/4QZc3jYdTR. You can help support my work and see some cool behind-the-scenes content at patreon.com/atomicfrontier.
