VARIMA and the RNN weather predictions Comparison in Irbid city

This research aims to compare two weather forecasting models: the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model and the Recurrent Neural Network model. Analysis and forecasting of boundary layer variables in the city of Irbid is performed based on historical data for many weather variables. The performance of both models is evaluated using the root mean square prediction error (normalized RMSPE) to predict each variable separately. The results showed that the Recurrent Neural Network model was superior to the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model in predicting five variables out of the six variables used in the study.
