Mechanisms

• Forecast Backtesting Cadence
  • They log both errors with their directions, then compute a calibration score across all their past horizon forecasts and find a systematic pattern: the team runs roughly 30% overconfident at the short horizon and keeps its long-horizon bands too narrow.

    This sourceIt is a proper scoring rule — minimized by reporting your true beliefs — which is why a backtesting ritual uses it to reward calibrated honesty rather than confident bluster.

• Probabilistic Forecast
  • Over thousands of past "60%" forecasts, the service checks whether rain actually fell on roughly sixty percent of those days, summarizing the gap with a Brier score and correcting any systematic over- or under-confidence.
