Beyond 'will it rain': Smart forecasts tell whether your route will be flooded

WayCast, founded by Dhananjay Sant, harnesses rainfall and terrain data to assess local flooding threats. By providing hyper-local forecasts, it empowers residents to make wise weather-related decisions. Concurrently, students from GSFC University have innovated drone systems to identify municipal issues like potholes and water inundation. These projects showcase the urgent necessity for precise weather insights in city environments, aiming to bolster urban governance and public safety during challenging meteorological events.
