AccuWeather is a privately owned company headquartered in the US. Founded in 1962, it employs approximately 600 individuals and operates in the technology, information, and media sectors, specializing in providing weather forecasts and warnings.
AccuWeather upgraded its data pipeline on March 12, 2026, implementing Databricks Lakeflow to reduce weather data latency, a move intended to support faster trades and hedges in India amidst warnings of a late-winter polar vortex risk. Previously, on March 10, the company projected a significant shift for the 2026 severe weather season, expecting fewer tornadoes but an increased risk of destructive straight-line winds and life-threatening flash floods. Earlier in March, on the 5th, AccuWeather NOW, its free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channel, launched on Samsung TV Plus in the US, broadening access to its forecasts and warnings. Also on March 5, AccuWeather.com released its 2026 pollen forecast, noting rising tree pollen counts in the West and South, which signals the beginning of allergy season in those regions.
