Why this word?
This word originates from the Latin word “prōspicientia,” which describes both the act of looking forward and divine providence. Meteorologists are masters of prospicience — especially when people rely on them to report weather conditions for travel, traffic, and daily life. Through satellites and other technology, meteorologists use weather data to generate a forecast model. These forecast models help meteorologists predict future weather conditions.
