Who we are

Standard Weather seal

Standard Weather is a forensic meteorology and atmospheric consulting practice. We establish what the atmosphere was doing at a specific place and time, and we document that record so it can be used with confidence.

Our clients include attorneys, insurers, claims professionals, and organizations that need an objective weather record—not a forecast, and not an opinion dressed as fact.

What forensic meteorology is for

Forensic meteorology reconstructs past weather for decisions that depend on atmospheric conditions. Typical uses include:

Legal

Site-specific historical conditions for litigation, depositions, and expert testimony—grounded in certified observations and transparent methods.

Insurance & claims

Support for hail, wind, flood, and related claims where timing, intensity, and location of weather matter to coverage and causation questions.

How we work

  • Observation

    We start with what was measured: surface observations, radar, upper-air data, and other authoritative records for the time and area in question.

  • Certified data

    Where available, we use certified historical weather data and document sources so the record can be reviewed and reproduced.

  • Probabilities

    When certainty is limited, we state statistical likelihoods clearly—what the data support, and what they do not—without speculation.
