        "I believe someone is providing false wind data to throw of the accuracy of the wind mapping and forecasting models"

        Should be the holy Devil then (:oj)--- More seriously:

        • Windy doesn't falsify data, which is provided by serious people (excepting maybe the few owners of personal weather stations bougth for two pence in a supermarket)
        • when one raises such a remark, it would be helpful to also provide more details (location, timestamp, forecast model/level and/or weather station, screenshots, etc.); otherwise, people who can help could not really help

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

          Did you try different weather models ? Depending of the location, this is common to see differences, sometimes big, between the models
