Be one step ahead with the advanced features of Windy Premium! [EN]

@thanos7282 agreed.

I registered with the sole reason of expressing my dissatisfaction with once free features being moved to premium. Specifically the 10 day forecast.. thats a particularly cheap shot, as it's really the only feature out of the bunch that is used by the average Joe.
Well this average Joe can get his weather elsewhere. Another good product ruined by greed. -
@Cody-Pothier Hello, we are sorry if this change caused you any inconvenience, but the fact is that majority of Windy is still freely accessible. The 6-day forecast is free to use.

@Korina Добрый день! Как быть с оплатой?

Hello Korina, If I pay for a Premium subscription, how many device can I log in with one Premium account a the same time? I want to use it on computer, notebook and smartphone.
-
@chao_orz Hello, you can use Premium on all your devices.

@Дмитрий-1972 Hi, what would you like to know about payment?

@xfcstormchaser Hi, not everything can be offered for free.
But we still provide most of Windy features free to use. -
@Ahmed-A-AS It is the option if we want to keep Windy ad-free.
-
@Korina The ads are one thing, and you have made too much to avoid them.

@Korina Как быть в этом случае? Более длительный прогноз и премиум функции не доступны.
-
@Дмитрий-1972 You will need to purchase Windy Premium to view the 10-day forecast.

The forecast provided by each weather model is updated at a minimum of

Being free user, for you models are updated twice a day.

So do we have to upgrade to premium in order to get accurate forecasts now? It is literally snowing as I type this in Soldotna, and the Windy app indicates no new snow in the next 24 hours. Your forecasts have really been off the last several weeks....

When has windy.com ever been accurate? My location accuracy has been somewhere around 25% 3 days out. Normally I'm not miffed about losing features to a paywall like the 10-day feature, I get that it costs significant amounts of money for it to work, but since it is rarely accurate, there is no way I'd be paying for the service. It is a cosmetically pretty presentation of weather but without accuracy, it is just a pretty facade. Maybe it's more accurate away from the central coast of California or outside the US in general?

@redfox435cat @brother-bill The forecasts you see aren't Windy's forecasts. They don't have a team of meteorologists developing forecasts for you to be disappointed in haha. You should be complaining to the company's creating and maintaining the guidance models.
ANY guidance model 3 days out can be pretty inaccurate, they get better all the time but that far out you start getting into so many variables it's unreal.
If you find a guidance model that is better for your specific area - you can always bring it up in the forums as a model you'd like to see on their site.

@Wheats I get that. Something has changed with Windy recently (where they get their forecasting data perhaps?) and it seemed to be around the same time the "Premium" option was rolled out. Windy has been, historically, fairly accurate for my AO. Something has changed.

@brother-bill
Windy gets the data from the same weather models, just adding new ones.
These weathers models improve their forecast years after years.
But locally at some time of the year they could be a bit less accurate.
Have you tried to compare all of them and to compare Forecast vs observation
