Rainfall-Prediction---Weather-Forecasting

Problem Statement: Rain Prediction –Weather forecasting Weather forecasting is the application of science and technology to predict the conditions of the atmosphere for a given location and time. Weather forecasts are made by collecting quantitative data about the current state of the atmosphere at a given place and using meteorology to project how the atmosphere will change. Rain Dataset is to predict whether or not it will rain tomorrow. The Dataset contains about 10 years of daily weather observations of different locations in Australia. Here, predict two things: 1. Problem Statement: a) Design a predictive model with the use of machine learning algorithms to forecast whether or not it will rain tomorrow. b) Design a predictive model with the use of machine learning algorithms to predict how much rainfall could be there. Dataset Description: Number of columns: 23 Date - The date of observation Location -The common name of the location of the weather station MinTemp -The minimum temperature in degrees celsius MaxTemp -The maximum temperature in degrees celsius Rainfall -The amount of rainfall recorded for the day in mm Evaporation -The so-called Class A pan evaporation (mm) in the 24 hours to 9am Sunshine -The number of hours of bright sunshine in the day. WindGustDi r- The direction of the strongest wind gust in the 24 hours to midnight WindGustSpeed -The speed (km/h) of the strongest wind gust in the 24 hours to midnight WindDir9am -Direction of the wind at 9am WindDir3pm -Direction of the wind at 3pm WindSpeed9am -Wind speed (km/hr) averaged over 10 minutes prior to 9am WindSpeed3pm -Wind speed (km/hr) averaged over 10 minutes prior to 3pm Humidity9am -Humidity (percent) at 9am Humidity3pm -Humidity (percent) at 3pm Pressure9am -Atmospheric pressure (hpa) reduced to mean sea level at 9am Pressure3pm -Atmospheric pressure (hpa) reduced to mean sea level at 3pm Cloud9am - Fraction of sky obscured by cloud at 9am. Cloud3pm -Fraction of sky obscured by cloud Temp9am-Temperature (degrees C) at 9am Temp3pm -Temperature (degrees C) at 3pm RainToday -Boolean: 1 if precipitation (mm) in the 24 hours to 9am exceeds 1mm, otherwise 0 RainTomorrow -The amount of next day rain in mm. Used to create response variable . A kind of measure of the "risk".
