Daily Weather forecasting is used for multiple reasons in multiple areas like agriculture, energy supply, transportations, etc. Accuracy of weather conditions shown in forecast reports is very necessary. In this paper, the review is conducted to investigate a better approach for forecasting which compares many techniques such as Artificial Neural Network, Ensemble Neural Network, Backpropagation Network, Radial Basis Function Network, General Regression Neural Network, Genetic Algorithm,

Among which neural network with the backpropagation algorithm performs prediction with minimal error. Neural network is a complex network which is self-adaptive in nature. It learns by itself using the training data and generates some intelligent patterns which are useful for forecasting the weather. This paper reviews various techniques and focuses mainly on neural network with back propagation technique for daily weather forecasting. The technique uses 28 input parameters to forecast the daily weather in terms of temperature, rainfall, humidity, cloud condition, and weather of the day.
