The amount of risk in weather derivatives is calculated properly by taking
into account a correlation between weather observation sites and a
correlation between meteorological elements. A weather prediction method
by creating a weather scenario from historical weather data includes a
first step of estimating parameters of a weather time-series model based
on historical weather data including past plural meteorological elements,
a meteorological element correlation between sites, and a correlation
between meteorological elements, and a second step of converting random
numbers into meteorological elements based on the estimated parameters.
The second step is executed a given number of times to create a plurality
of weather scenarios.
