"This challenge proposes to design the best algorithm to predict for a large number of storms the 24h-forecast intensity every 6 hours. The (real) database is composed of more than 3000 extra-tropical and tropical storm tracks, and it also provides the intensity and some local physical information at each timestep (2). Moreover, we also provide the 700-hPa altitudes of the neighborhood of the storm, that can be viewed as an image centered on the current storm location.\n",

"The goal is to provide for each time step of each storm (total number of instants =90 000), the predicted 24h-forecast intensity, so 4 time steps in the future. \n",
