      This just bad business practice, you don't make premium more viable by cutting out functionality that existed for years. You make it more alluring through new features.

        @hokee need regional pricing. 3 a month is a burden in some countries that earn 1$ or less per hour and pay the same per hour to live and warm their homes.

          @James-Ellis-3 everyone does it nowadays. World economy is on a squeeze. We are killing ourselves. Our earth. All the wealth out there but most are poor and hungry.

            @przemo1986 Thank you, and we're happy that you find our decisions valuable. There is no timeline for the 3D Globe in the app, but it is on our to-do list.

              As many people have stated on the multitude of posts expressing disappointment, Windy's decision to make the 10 day forecast premium is unfortunate, at best. Windy has been my go to since 2016-17. My enthusiasm and love for the site has been shared with a great number of individuals during the past six years; however, my love affair with Windy is officially over! Of course, the company has to do what's best for its bottom line, but I am not willing to pay for information that is free on many other sites. It is a bit perplexing to charge money for something that has been free for so long, and with innumerable available alternatives, it seems as if it was done with little foresight. Based on the effusive backlash noted in the feedback section, Windy’s customers agree. Good luck windy...this ship has sailed!

                @weatherluver Hello, you can still use the 6-day forecast, plus all the models, layers, and special tools like Hurricane tracker, all available for free.

                    Also a long term forecast is a basic function of any weather app, so now as it stands the basic version of Windy is less functional than the default weather apps that anyone has.

                      what are all of these weather apps that people are talking about?
                      I have yet to find one that has a 10-day forecast, let alone a way to compare multiple models during these timeframes....

                          No worries. Yr the Norwegian site offers the 10 day euro for free.

                            @evolab I understand your point, but we are not like other weather sites, so we chose a different direction.

                              @evolab No, even the ECMWF weather model is included in other services forecasts like Weather Underground, but accompanied with other weather models.

                                You are right, as for instance this weather website:
                                https://www.wunderground.com/about/data
                                Which explains
                                Forecast inputs….A variety of inputs, including, but not limited to, ECMWF, GFS, and NAM….mostly GFS and NAM

                                They surely use the free version of the ECMWF with a low resolution of 40 km, not the HiRes one with 9km resolution which is not free but expensive.

                                    @idefix37 The poster talks generally about the ECMWF model, and not a specific one. Calm it down, mate.

                                        @Korina said in 10 day forecast gone:

                                        ve various subscriptions, so in the end, it is a question of priorities

                                        Hi. Is there a corporate subscription that can be purchased instead of individual users?
