Short summary
We use machine learning emulators to create a massive ensemble of simulated weather extremes. This ensemble provides a large sample size, which is essential to characterize the statistics of extreme weather events and study their physical mechanisms. Also, these ensembles can be beneficial to accurately forecast the probability of low-likelihood extreme weather.
