I don't get why the put nowcast in quotes. Nowcasting is pretty common term in meteorology.
It's also cool that they could get this far without physics. Of course, "HRRR model begins to outperform our current results when the prediction horizon reaches roughly 5 to 6 hours". Simple associations that could be discovered by neural networks work in the short term, but the atmospheric physics is needed to understand the long term evolution of storms.
