Automatic Generation of Textual Short-Term Weather Forecasts on Real Prediction Data

In this paper we present a computational method which obtains textual short-term weather forecasts for every municipality in Galicia (NW Spain), using the real data provided by the Galician Meteorology Agency (MeteoGalicia). This approach is based on Soft-Computing based methods and strategies for linguistic description of data and for Natural Language Generation. The obtained results have been thoroughly validated by expert meteorologists, which ensures that in the near future it can be improved and released as a real service offering custom forecasts for a wide public
