The global weather forecasting services market size is expected to reach USD 4.07 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Many businesses and industries such as aviation, agriculture, marine, transportation and logistics, and renewables are weather-sensitive, requiring highly accurate weather forecasting services and solutions to make decisions and operate efficiently. Climate change has led to more frequent extreme weather events, driving the demand for weather forecasting services worldwide.
The Covid-19 pandemic struck the globe in 2020, leading to travel restrictions and lockdowns. It impacted the operations of the market players owing to government regulations and supply chain disruption. Some of the market players witnessed negative or lower year-over-year (YoY) growth in revenues during the financial year. The accuracy of weather forecasts was probably reduced as lesser flights operated during the lockdown period. Other observation systems such as marine and satellites were affected to a lesser extent.
Many weather forecasting service providers offer tailored solutions to industries, meeting application-specific needs. Technological advancements such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are expected to aid in improving the weather forecast quality. Many players also offer data and analytics weather solutions to their clients, helping them mitigate risks and operate more efficiently. Market players are investing in research and technology such as automation and supercomputers for providing highly accurate weather forecasts.
