Breaking news, interchangeably termed latebreaking news and also known as a special report or special coverage or news bulletin, is a current issue that broadcasters feel warrants the interruption of scheduled programming and/or current news in order to report its details.

Its use is also assigned to the most significant story of the moment or a story that is being covered live.

It could be a story that is simply of wide interest to viewers and has little impact otherwise.

Meteorology is the interdisciplinary scientific study of the atmosphere.

The study of meteorology dates back millennia, though significant progress in meteorology did not occur until the 18th century.

The 19th century saw modest progress in the field after weather observation networks were formed across broad regions.

Prior attempts at prediction of weather depended on historical data.

It wasn't until after the elucidation of the laws of physics and, more particularly, the development of the computer, allowing for the automated solution of a great many equations that model the weather, in the latter half of the 20th century that significant breakthroughs in weather forecasting were achieved.
