These accidents can be caused by a number of factors, but weather is typically to blame in the majority of them. Other factors might include age, race, and gender. One thing is certain though, we believe that Minnesotans are the better drivers in inclement weather conditions and we intend to prove this through data collection and analysis. We believe

WEATHER DERIVATIVE- A TOOL FOR WEATHER RISK HEDGING Most of the industries in the world are directly or indirectly affected by weather changes. Due to the adversity of global warming and the burning of fossil fuels, the weather has become quite unpredictable. Every now and then occurrence of drought, heavy and scanty rainfall is seen. As a result agriculture output becomes very irregular and this entails heavy losses not only to the farming community but also to the related industries. Although

Some of the selective ways are following various weather forecast departments’ for the purpose of receiving the weather information send back to the earth viz. weather stations (for the measurement of temperature, rainfall, wind speed, and humidity; weather balloons (just float in a very high altitude in the atmosphere with a transmitter); weather satellites (sent a satellite to the space for getting the information regarding rainfall, temperature
