MSN Weather is introducing a new system that identifies unusual weather trends and notifies users if they are significant.

The new Climate Insights Engine leverages 70 years of detailed historical weather data to track temperature, precipitation, humidity, and wind. This engine compares local weather to historical trends to determine how unusual recent weather has been.

When something unexpected happens, the system will send notifications to keep users informed about the local climate.

In a blog post,Microsoft says MSN Weather provides insights such as “This month’s temperatures are 4.5 degrees lower than normal for your location,” “It’s been 35 days since there has been measurable precipitation at your location; this is the 2nd longest streak ever recorded”.

The new Climate Insights Engine was released to complement MSN Weather’s Weather Trends Page, which debuted last winter. This page provides users with monthly and yearly records and tracks recent weather trends for their location.

The insights engine will proactively inform users when significant trends and records have happened, while the trends page provides an attractive and useful tool for exploring deeper information about the climate patterns where users are.

The Redmond-based tech giant says MSN Weather’s new climate insights notifications are empowered by AI, which is interesting considering Microsoft recently releaseda patent describing an AI-based techcapable of forecasting unusual climate events, such as tornados or storms.

It’s also worth mentioning that MSN Weather has been consistently recognized for its world-leading forecast accuracy, with the latest recognition comingearlier this year.

MSN Weather integrates with Windows 10, Windows 11, Microsoft Edge, Bing, and the Bing and Microsoft Start mobile apps to provide weather information.
