Windy launches high-resolution forecast model ICON-D2 (2.2km)
-
Great news! Do you think a high-res model will ever be developed for the Rocky Mountain region of N. America?
-
Do you plan to use ICON-D2 data to forecast 'Clouds base', 'Cloud tops', 'Thunderstorms' and 'Visibility'? These are the ones that pose the most interest for pilots :)
-
@igor-320 Hello, these parameters are included in the ICON-D2 data set, so we cannot display them.
-
@ibender70 Same request from me. Would love to set ICON-D2 default both in browser and in app.
-
@arneb This doesn't help with the app though. There it always default back to ECWMF.
-
@unic0der Hi, we know this is feature with high user demand, we will consider it.
-
@mhaberler nice to know. Arome was also usefull
-
@ghurbain Hi, AROME model has data outage, it will be available again in February. More information here - https://community.windy.com/topic/19131/arome-data-outage

@korina @ivo
Thanks for adding this model. It's really accurate and well worth it!
Though...
As @iBender70 already stated... it is kind of ridiculous to change the model each time I open my Android app (yes I am logged in), that's primo.
Last but not least... Over 2 months have passed and the android application still doesn't get to show the ICON-D2 model data... why? -
@ankhazam Hello, the new model ICON-D2 will be available with the upcoming release we are currently testing. It will be released very soon.
