Je conseille vivement AROME, ne serait-ce que pour sa résolution qui est la plus importante et parce qu’il est bon en bord de mer assurément (pour les vents locaux et les effets de brise). Pour des échéances plus longues que 48h, j’opte pour ICON. Je n’ai pas vraiment d’opinion sur NEMS, par contre le diagramme correspondant pour un lieu donné ferait appel à un autre modèle de Meteoblue qui serait très précis.
Pour les vagues, il faut bien savoir que les modèles dont la résolution est respectivement de 13km et de 22km ne sont pas capables de donner, dans l’absolu, une prévision correcte dans la bande des 300m. Ils ne peuvent en aucun cas tenir compte des faibles profondeurs (creusement des vagues puis leur déferlement) ou de la réfraction des vagues par le tracé de la côte. Il faut se faire une opinion personnelle sur les effets du rivage sur les vagues et ensuite intégrer la prévision du modèle (La considérer en valeur relative et non pas absolue). Regarder d’abord Vagues qui est la mer totale (mer du vent + houle). Ensuite noter la Houle et surtout sa période qui est un indice de son énergie et de son aptitude à créer de puissantes déferlantes. Houle2 permet de voir si on a une houle croisée et donc une mer chaotique.
Hi @twebb101,
the update of current location is not dependent on using app, widget asks for location of the phone itself, if widget does not get it within a reasonable time, it either uses older location data or location in the app. So the problem might also be with internet connection or directly in the iPhone settings for Windy.
@rittels Thanks! I'll check it out!
I'm still would like to hear some feedback on my latest request from developers. Right now, there is no way to use the app when you select "Distance & planning" option (long tap anywhere on a map), because you can't save the route and the rest of options are not available when you have selected "Distance & planning".
Dear @geglinto,
if you would like to set the temperature to Fahrenheit as a default option, please go to Settings, while you are signed in, and change temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Your settings will save and temperature will be shown in °F in all devices. Hope this helps. Korina

Thank you for continuing your search about the problem I face.
Description: when I launch windy in my desctop, the start-up location is ALWAYS the one determined by my IP.
It seems that the "cloud" is not saving my start-up location
(although it saves the other parameters I change e.g. units of temperature, wind etc).
If you have time, please take a look in my profile.
Thank you!
Same here. We're a group of paragliders currently on Tenerife - and noticed differences within the results of a group member using a laptop and another one using the app (I don't know right now if IOS or Android)! Though not in temperature but wind-direction and/or -speed.
Hello @midsummer,
to share a particular forecast model or location please click on the Share symbol where you will be provided with a share link -
Kind regards, Korina
I'll third this!
Each time I navigate the the site/app, I have to re-select the desired layer and zoom level. It would be such a relief if the site/app could remember this.
Dear @WhiteKite20,
regarding the used verb forecast, both versions of past tense are grammatically correct and widely used in diverse types of writings.
Best regards, Korina
Dear @Corj12019607,
thank you for your insight. We currently only accept voluntary donations for our app, however we will consider applying your suggestion in the future.
Best regards, Korina
@Viet-Nam
weather forecast for Paracel is shown in windy
Lets focus on weather, not in the names of disputed areas.

In addition, it is important to choose the weather model that gives the best temperature forecasts in your area. In Canada, Windy offers 4 weather models.
Selecting Reported temperature you can compare the observed temperature vs forecasts of each model. It seems that Meteoblue gives the best results near Notre-Dame-du-Nord.
The other models are worse. They show a wider gap between the observed temperature curve and the forecast temperature one.
