May you provide NOAA WW3 model for Caspian Sea?

I need wave models for the Caspian Sea. Thanks to Windy, for providing ECMWF and ICON model, but there is no available NOAA WW3 model for the Caspian Sea. Is it possible to add this area for model's coverage?

Thanks

As far as I know Caspian Sea is not included in WW3.
According to NOAA
https://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/
The WW3 global wave model will be decommissioned in February 2021.
It will be replaced in March 2021 by a new configuration of the WAVEWATCH III global wave model, called GFS-Wave.

We hope that NOAA's new wave model (GFS-Wave) will provide wave data for Caspian Sea.

Thank you for response and more information.

WW3 model shares data for the Caspian Sea. I found this site that provides WW3 data but not good as Windy.

Hope, new GFS-Wave model will be available in Windy for the Caspian Sea.

Many thanks,
