<![CDATA[Short-term weather prediction plays a critical role in supporting decision-making across sectors such as agriculture, transportation, and disaster risk management. This study proposes an interpretable and computationally efficient weather forecasting approach based on linear system modeling combined with Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Historical meteorological data—including temperature, humidity, air pressure, and wind speed—are represented in matrix form to extract dominant patterns and construct a system of linear equations describing inter-variable relationships. The resulting model is evaluated for short-term forecasting horizons of 24–48 hours using standard performance metrics. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SVD-based linear system model outperforms conventional linear regression, achieving lower MAE and RMSE values and higher coefficients of determination (R² = 0.94 for temperature and 0.91 for humidity). While not intended to replace physics-based numerical weather prediction models for long-term forecasting, the proposed approach offers significant advantages in computational speed, interpretability, and applicability in data- and resource-constrained environments. These findings indicate that matrix-based linear system analysis provides a viable alternative for fast and accurate short-term weather prediction and can be further enhanced through integration with non-linear or machine learning-based methods.]]>
