      Hi, I really love the fact the met office (ukv model) has been added on to the app however I was disappointed to see it can't be used as the data source in the widgets, could this be added on in a future update?

        @matty1001 Where did you see the Met Office model in the app? I don't see.

          You need to update the app from App Store or Play Store.

            @idefix37 I use the latest version from Google Play (37.2.6). Can you send a screenshot?

              May be the app is not yet updated in Google play.
              In AppStore it is the 38.0.0

                      @Korina Is it only for UK and Ireland? Will there be global one?

                        @cloudy_ UKV is a local model, it covers the UK, Ireland, and parts of western Europe.

                            @przemo1986 As mentioned above, UKV is local model, not global.

                              @Korina Are you planning to add UKMO and GEM models?

                                @cloudy_ We are always on the lookout for new forecast models. So yes, we might add them in the future.

                                  What does the V in UKV stand for?
                                  UKV does seem to work well for fog and visibility forecasts.

                                    UKV stands for United Kingdom Variable-resolution weather forecasting system.
                                    Windy claims a 2km while the Met Office says 1.5km. May be due to this variable resolution?

                                      @idefix37 Yes, the 2km is average resolution.
