Can someone just do the world a favour and delete the GFS from existence...
Recently we published the paper led by Protyusha Mukhopadhyay et al. in Journal of Earth System Sciences on "Vulnerability of the Himalayan region under climate change". link.springer.com/article/10…
The relevance of the study becoming evident through the increased devastation as seen.
Promising initiative by team @Ashoka University in developing AI based S2S forecast. Details in following link
(Congratulations @Sandeep Juneja and team SCDLDS)

“We had good preparation for monsoon but we failed at micro level.
We will start our fresh preparation from January of next year.”

Extremely happy to share our recent paper on two cloudburst events occurred over Chennai (30-31 August 2025) & Kolkata (22-23 September). The paper is unique as we attempted to identify the key processes and provide a conceptual framework for cloudburst

Pleased to share our recent paper on analyses of suites of observations and model forecast for the extreme rainfall event during 9-10 July over Delhi NCR. Models could reasonably forecast with short lead but still struggle to get the amount & location. doi.org/10.1007/s00382-025-0…

India leads the world in hyper-local weather forecasting, outpacing the US, EU, and UK with precise alerts for storms, heatwaves, and cyclones. Farmers receive timely rainfall warnings, and emergency teams respond faster—turning disaster management from reactive to predictive.

There was a continuous debate about how to make the ensemble prediction system products useful to operational forecasters. To address this question, @Snehlata Tirkey etal. published this paper where a derails is provided to decide on extreme event forecast rdcu.be/ewTAZ
A very special occasion of formal inauguration of our book on South Asian Monsoon by dignitaries at Atria University, Bengaluru today. Proud to be part of the function
Will request all to please listen to the most authentic narrative straight from the scientists the developers who built with extreme dedication the Bharat Forecasting System model in a span of 5 years and put India on top of globe in the following YouTube

A landmark initiative that we started in IITM in 2017 came to completion by launch of Bharat Forecast System on 26th May. The complete sequence of the development is reported by The Telegraph telegraphindia.com/india/how…

I have immense respect for the women mentioned here—they have done outstanding research in their respective fields. That said, I would like to clarify that the forecast system being referred to was developed by a different team of scientists at IITM. The core development, over the years, was led by Drs. Mukhopadhyay, Prajeesh, Phani Murali, and Siddharth.
The attached publication outlines the development process and the key contributors.

The all-women-led team behind the first-of-its-kind, state-of-the-art indigenous “Bharat Forecast System” #BharatFS, launched by the India Meteorological Department under the Ministry of Earth Sciences.
A brilliant reflection of PM Sh @narendramodi's push for greater women contribution in the making of #ViksitBharat.

IITM New Study:
Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) High-Resolution Global Forecast Model version 1: an attempt to resolve monsoon prediction deadlock
Published in: Geoscientific Model Development, 18, 1879–1894, 2025
Authors: R. Phani Murali Krishna, Siddharth Kumar, A. Gopinathan Prajeesh, Peter Bechtold, Nils Wedi, Kumar Roy, Malay Ganai, B. Revanth Reddy, Snehlata Tirkey, Tanmoy Goswami, Radhika Kanase, Sahadat Sarkar, Medha Deshpande, and Parthasarathi Mukhopadhyay @PARTHAS_M
Abstract
The prediction of Indian monsoon rainfall variability, affecting a country with a population of billions, remained one of the major challenges of the numerical weather prediction community. While in recent years, there has been a significant improvement in the prediction of the synoptic-scale transients associated with the monsoon circulation, the intricacies of rainfall variability remained a challenge. Here, an attempt is made to develop a global model using a dynamic core of a cubic octahedral grid that provides a higher resolution of 6.5 km over the global tropics. This high-resolution model has been developed to resolve the monsoon convection. Reforecasts with the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) High-Resolution Global Forecast Model (HGFM) have been run daily from June through September 2022. HGFM has a wavenumber truncation of 1534 in the cubic octahedral grid. The monsoon events have been predicted with a 10 d lead time. HGFM is compared to the operational Global Forecast System (GFS) T1534. While HGFM provides skills comparable to GFS, it shows better skills for higher precipitation thresholds. This model is currently being run in experimental mode and will be made operational.
