The outlook for atmospheric scientists, including meteorologists, overall is good, with faster than average employment growth predicted through 2029. According to the Department of Labor, there will be increased demand in private industry for atmospheric scientists as more companies will be in need of specialized weather information. In addition, as computer models and meteorological equipment continue to be improved on, space weather forecasts will increase in accuracy. This will enable space meteorologists as well as other types of meteorologists to tailor their forecasts for specific purposes.
