Given the unpredictability of weather due to increased global warming, weather-sensitive businesses must adequately adapt, anticipate, and mitigate their weather risk. Businesses can find correlation of volatile weather with sales data and possible financial deficits. Various insurance and financial products analyze weather risk on a monthly or seasonal basis. However, for a wide variety of businesses, it is necessary to look closer, at the daily or weekly changes in weather patterns, to better analyze (and adapt to prevent) potential weather risk.
