Service: Weather Forecasting
Make Better Operational Decisions with Tailored Weather Insights
Minimize weather risk, maximize project uptime
No one can control the weather – but you can stay one step ahead of it. With tailored weather forecasting for your specific site, project, or event, you can enhance operations, reduce risk, and even save money.
Our team of engineers and meteorologists digs deep into your project goals, pinpointing how weather events could impact your operations.
We deliver tailored risk assessments by evaluating both short- and long-range weather conditions to keep you ahead of the curve.
How we help
We’ll help shield your site from weather disruptions with data-driven foresight. Our in-house meteorologists and climatologists use advanced tools to deliver the weather intel you need—fast, focused, and tailored to your operation.
Weather forecasting for operations
Make smarter, safer, and more cost-effective decisions with weather insights that go beyond basic weather forecasts.
It’s not just about rain or wind. It’s about knowing if it’s safe for window washers on the 30th floor, if a bridge should close due to ice, or if your rail lines face avalanche risk. We give you the actionable answers you actually need.
Speak with a weather forecasting expertWeather forecasting for events
When the weather shifts, so can everything else. From costly delays to full operational shutdowns, extreme weather can derail your plans fast.
That’s where RWDI’s Event Weather Forecasting comes in. We focus on more than just the forecast. We track changing conditions in real time, giving you the lead time you need to act. Whether it’s grounding flights, pausing athletic competitions, or storing solar arrays, our team helps you stay one step ahead.
Avoiding bad weather is only half the story. For many industries, like film production, finding the perfect weather windows matters just as much. Sometimes, one break in the weather can be just as impactful.

Even with perfect planning, sometimes the perfect storm still comes up. Understanding the weather conditions that contributed to an extreme weather event, such as a tornado, flood, or wildfire, can help design better and plan for the future.
We recreate past weather with advanced modeling tools, like a weather forecast, but in reverse and way more detailed. Our high-resolution data goes beyond standard sources, letting us pinpoint conditions to within a kilometer and an hour, even going back decades.

FAQs about our weather forecasting services
Still have questions? Contact us.
RWDI partners with clients across diverse industries to provide tailored weather forecasting risk management solutions.
Our expertise benefits a range of applications including bridges (handling wind/snow closures and snow accretion on cables), construction sites (managing wind gusts), and films and commercials (forecasting rain, light, wind, etc.). We support flood zones with expected rainfall data and offer crucial insights for highway and rail corridors in mountainous areas, addressing snow closures and avalanche risks. Our services enhance HVAC system efficiency, manage industrial emissions (plume dispersion), and ensure safe berthing operations at marine terminals (wind/wave conditions). We also support surface mines (controlling dust and noise), production and delivery operations (minimizing delays and enhancing safety), ski facilities (maintaining snow quality and safety), and wildfire response efforts (monitoring plume, wind speed, and rainfall).
Our services include automatic delivery of standard forecasts, custom spot forecasts tailored to specific conditions and locations, and “weather watch” notifications when particular conditions are met.
We also provide weather training conducted by our experts and one-on-one consulting to ensure you understand and can act on the weather data effectively. This flexible approach ensures that you receive the most relevant and timely weather information for your operations.
Our individualized consulting services are designed to meet your specific needs. We can engage with you informally over the phone or conduct scheduled web briefings with your entire team. During these interactive consultations, we interpret forecasts based on your unique concerns, providing immediate answers and actionable guidance. This personalized service ensures you receive expert advice tailored to your operational requirements.
