To predict traffic flow under adverse weather, a hybrid deep learning model concerning adverse weather (DLW-Net) is formulated. The DLW-Net model consists of the target and global analysis parts. For the target analysis part, the spatio-temporal characteristics of traffic flow data are analyzed using the convolutional neural network (CNN), the long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) neural networks. For the global analysis part, the variation rules of traffic flow and weather data are extracted using the LSTM model. Additionally, the characteristics of traffic flow under normal and adverse weather are also discussed. The developed model is verified using three cases. The results show that traffic volume and speed would reduce under heavy rain compared to normal weather, however, drizzle has little impact on traffic flow patterns; the rules of traffic speed data are disturbed by strong wind; and the DLW-Net model performs best under all the conditions.
