A weather forecast is only useful if appropriate decisions are made on the basis of the forecast. This presents a challenge, because weather forecasts are innately uncertain. How do we ensure that the likelihood of an event, particularly for extreme and impactful weather, is understood and acted upon? This is where psychology meets physics, and where the application of mathematical understanding is key.
