π¦οΈ Which weather model is most accurate? We score them every day, in the open.
We released two things on Hugging Face:
π Global Weather Model Leaderboard Every day it records what each global model predicted for 24 world cities, compares it with what actually happened (ERA5), and updates the ranking. ECMWF IFS and AIFS, NOAA GFS and AIGFS, DWD ICON, JMA, ECCC GEM, MET Norway, side by side, on the same cases, since 1 January 2026.
Four elements, four tabs: max temperature, min temperature, wind, precipitation. Forecast leads from 1 to 7 days, with 8 to 10 days joining as they are verified.
𧬠Darwin-Prediction-Weather VIDRAFT's weather prediction system: a fusion engine that combines global forecasts, learning only from days already observed. It holds the lowest error in all four elements at every lead on the 2026 record, and the lowest error in all 15 evaluated cells of the WeatherBench 2 (2020) protocol.
What the 2026 record shows so far: β’ AI models now lead physics models at the major centres (AIFS vs IFS, AIGFS vs GFS) β’ Fusion goes further: 7-day max temperature RMSE 2.09 Β°C vs 2.41 Β°C for the next model
Also inside: yesterday's results with a daily WIN for the closest model, a 10-day outlook for every city, champions by city and by month, and a Live Earth map with wind, clouds, radar and temperature.
Every forecast and every observed value is open as CSV, so anyone can check the scores.
On the overall leaderboard, Gemini-4-Argon (73.62) and GPT-6.1-Sol (71.76) have the highest displayed scores, but neither has an official rank number. Kimi-K3.1-Pro (61.46) holds official rank No. 1 and leads the open models overall, followed by DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 (58.95, official No. 2) and GLM-5.3 (50.66, official No. 3).
These comparisons include entries whose official rank is β-β. Among officially ranked open models only, DeepSeek leads mathematical and scientific reasoning at 71.05. βOpenβ follows SuperCLUEβs classification, not an independent license review. Scores are benchmark points, not error rates; small differences and results from a Chinese-language-focused evaluation need validation on your own workloads. Detailed evaluation settings and the aggregation formula were not verified for this summary.
