World Meteorological Day
Monitor today, protect tomorrow

A graphic for World Meteorological Day featuring weather symbols.

What’s the weather going to be like? The answer to the question we ask ourselves every day is just a quick glance at our smartphone away.

The basis: global measurement data

What we don’t see is the enormous amount of data behind every single forecast. On today’s World Meteorological Day, the focus is on precisely this invisible foundation.

Did you know?

World Meteorological Day commemorates the founding of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in 1950. The WMO ensures that weather and climate data are measured to uniform standards worldwide and exchanged between countries – the basis for reliable forecasts and effective warning systems.

The motto: "Observe today, protect tomorrow“ takes things a step further, as only with the help of reliable data can weather patterns be identified at an early stage and risks assessed. Given the increasing frequency of extreme weather events, this task is becoming ever more important.
