RE: North Greece
@Staurossim Most weather models will struggle in mountainous regions. However, models with higher resolutions tend to fair better.

RE: Detroit Lake
@sixpoint Which model are you using? If you find one is not very effective for you, you can try one of the other ones Windy offers. In the US, users can change between ECMWF, GFS, ICON, NAM and HRRR.

RE: Location doesn’t work for sailors
@Pato-Jutard In your Windy app settings, do you have the startup location set to IP address or GPS? You can change it to your desired value.

RE: Set Default Model
@Gkikas-LGPZ @u7xtv727 @J42ds I think “use last overlay” only refers to wind / rain / temperature layers and not the actual model used. As far as I know, it always selects the ECMWF model at startup, for now.

RE: How to change my e-mail address
@Yukitaka-Nishimura Do you wish to ask two separate questions?
You can change your email if you click on your profile, then click edit profile. There, just click on the option to change email.
The update cycle for Windy's weather forecast varies depending on which model you select. It can be anywhere between one hour to twelve hours. (Models also vary depending on where you are located or where you want to get a forecast)

RE: Default location changed with new ISP
@Crobran If you open Windy settings, what you have your startup location set as? You can set it to IP or manually pick a city that you want.
