## Summary

NVIDIA adds StormScope EU, a regional version of its StormScope model trained on Europe weather and climate data, to the Earth-2 family of open AI models. It predicts cloud conditions across 16 Meteosat channels at 10-minute intervals using EUMETSAT satellite observations. European organizations including AXA, Vaisala Xweather, the University of Manchester, TotalEnergies and Space42 are adapting Earth-2 models for cyclone risk, lightning-enhanced forecasts, air-quality modeling, solar-energy forecasting and radar-based height estimation.
