UOGW Weather Forecast Suite
Publisher: Aerostratospheric / Midwest Stratospheric Data Systems Library: scikit-learn (.joblib heads) · helper: inference.py Site focus: Casey, Illinois + UOGW surface context Sibling data: `aerostratospheric/uogw` · `casey-openmeteo-hourly`
Multi-horizon research forecast heads (temperature, precip occurrence, gust, MSLP, RH, surface regime).
What this is / is not
Trained 2026-09-18T15:34:31Z. Hub re-touch 2026-09-23 — weights not re-trained that day. Intended retrain cadence: ~12:15 UTC after UOGW package sync.
Heads
Feature lists and holdout MAE / R² / accuracy: metrics.json.
How to load
import json
from pathlib import Path
import joblib
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
root = Path(snapshot_download("aerostratospheric/uogw-weather-forecast"))
# Option A — config-driven
cfg = json.loads((root / "config.json").read_text())
heads = {h: joblib.load(root / "models" / f"{h}.joblib") for h in cfg["heads"]}
# Option B — packaged helper (same directory layout)
# import importlib.util
# spec = importlib.util.spec_from_file_location("inf", root / "inference.py")
# inf = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec); spec.loader.exec_module(inf)
# heads = inf.load_all()
# Predict with a row matching metrics.json features for that head
# yhat = heads["temp_1h"].predict([feature_row])Requires scikit-learn, joblib, huggingface_hub.
