Today we are announcing a major update to Edison Literature, our scientific deep research agent. It represents a significant advancement over our previous PaperQA2 algorithm: it enables deeper reasoning over 100s of scientific documents, can retrieve information from figures and tables, and is state-of-the art among other deep research systems on scientific tasks.

Projected rainfall guide over the next 3 days. This is the latest 72-hour guide for projected accumulated rainfall totals from 3 main global models across the upper North Island. The Australian model has performed best for past heavy rainfall sequences but every weather event is different and models are not perfect. The rainfall will likely come to 2 surges. 1st – A south-east to easterly wind convergence from tonight (Monday 19th) through Tuesday (20th). 2nd – A prefrontal deluge ahead of a warm front associated with subtropical low (94P) from mid Wednesday (21st) until early Thursday (22nd). This will be accompanied by a vigorous north-easterly wind. Keep up to date with MetService watches and warning over the next few days for your own area.
