            @mbm12 Yes, there is usually delay around 5 min, but in general it is real-time.

              Which forecasting model is more accurate? Because this ECMWF model lately is making a lot of mistakes for my city, at 11 o'clock it is raining and when checking on the radar there is no rain.

                @mbm12 Hello, there is no certain way to determine which model is the best. We recommend to try all the available models to see which suits your location the most.

                  I saw all the models for today, and they didn't give any rain, but it is still raining 17h:30m .Capturar2.PNG Capturar.PNG

                    @mbm12 The untimely update may bring inaccurate weather data, so I hope to be able to access commercial weather sources, such as "AccuWeather".

                      @ting1990 We also offer 1 hour forecast under Windy Premium that offers more accurate prediction in shorter intervals. If there was only a small amount of rain, it can happen that weather model does not capture this.

                        One can use radar if available in your area, or the satellite IR setting and predict highly localised precipitation events yourself, even when the models and your very pretty local weather-person misses it! Windy sets you free to determine your own forecasts, which is terrific fun at banned parties and illegal gatherings at the beach. ;)
