  • Determining a REALFEEL seasonal index
    Patent number: 11402541
    Abstract: A system and method for forecasting perceived transitions to the four annual seasons in geographic areas is disclosed. The perceived transitions are identified by comparing forecasted daily temperatures in each geographic area to thresholds generated based on normal daily temperatures in those geographic areas. The forecasted daily temperatures may be calculated using both forecasted temperatures and forecasted perceived ambient temperatures (calculated using both temperature and humidity, cloud cover, sun intensity, and/or wind speed).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 28, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 2, 2022
    Assignee: AccuWeather, Inc.
    Inventors: Rosemary Radich, Tim Loftus, Jennifer Akers, Michael R. Root
