Description¶

hurricast is the first basin-specific storm baseline in the staged PyHazards roadmap and operates on storm-history sequences.

This initial adapter focuses on the shared tropical-cyclone forecasting interface and is intended as a reproducible starting point before broader storm-model breadth.

Benchmark Compatibility¶

Primary benchmark family: Tropical Cyclone Benchmark

Mapped benchmark ecosystems: IBTrACS

Programmatic Use¶

import torch
from pyhazards.models import build_model

model = build_model(
    name="hurricast",
    task="regression",
    input_dim=8,
    horizon=5,
    output_dim=3,
)

preds = model(torch.randn(2, 6, 8))
print(preds.shape)

Notes¶

Outputs are lead-time sequences of latitude, longitude, and intensity targets.
