Cool stuff but i've never seen much come out of these kinds of things. Crowd sourced surface pressure application will bring in so many observations the forecasts will be improved 30%. Fuck no.

So you really think you can launch a giant network of balloons and have that data integrated into the NOAA/NCEP model suite? Even if you get over the red tape it will take 10 years + to integrate this shit into the data assimilation program. You claim that you can input your balloon data into magical AI and it produces better forecasts than what the GFS? What is the standard of measurement I dont actually believe you at all
