This paper presents an approach for the direct inclusion of weather information in the power flow. Key issues addressed by the paper include the availability of weather information, the mapping of weather information to electric grid components, a flexible and extensible modeling approach for relating weather values to the power flow models, and the visualization of the weather impacts. The approach is demonstrated on several electric grids ranging in size from 7000 to 82,000 buses using weather data over several different years.10engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalMonitoring, Control, and Protectionelectric grid modelingpower flowvisualizationweatherAn Approach for the Direct Inclusion of Weather Information in the Power Flowtext10.24251/HICSS.2023.330
