This study demonstrates the significance of weather variables by utilizing logistic regression with p-levels above 95% confidence and cross-validation with a Brier score cost function. The logistic regression method includes step-wise forward selection and is applied to predict the probability of occurrence in weather-related cases or epidemics.
