Understanding the Compare Forecast Feature in Windy.com

@Korina ecmwf North of italy

[Seabright]

@Korina My go to is ECMWF

[zakapior1983]

@Korina I am using mostly ECMWF model in the south east of Poland but ICON-D2 is also good on the west of Poland....

[ablais]

I use ECMWF. It seems to be the most accurate for my location and needs

[reipla]

For long range (above 3 days) the GFS seems to work best. Switching to ECMWF for 2-3 day forecast, as it offers better precision. ICON models just for comparison.

Based on East coast Baltic sea, main usage wind, waves and cloud cover.

I use ECMWF simply because it gives me very reliable results. I originally chose it because it uses the highest resolution, but I keep it because it delivers. I have fiddled a bit with the other models, especially with the help of the model comparison tool, but ECMWF generally matches best with what I see out my window.

Mostly.using ECMWF, but ICON-D2 is also quite useful in Berlin, Germany

[vanderbosko]

@Korina mostly I use ECMWF in combination with ICON, suits me best

[drobizg]

@Korina I'm using Icon-D2 for near-Prague location.

[mmcguirk]

I use ECMWF mostly, occasionally use Compare to get a feel for possible different outcomes. While I'm here, I also much prefer the "Meteog" view over "Basic". Would it be possible to allow users the option to make that the default? Thanks for absolutely the best weather app ever!

@Korina ecmwf and ICON D2

[Dasame]

I am in Australia and use the Access model which has a low resolution. I would be interested to see if other models give a more accurate picture.

[RicardoB]

@Korina In Portugal we trust in ECMWF

[Bob Vaughan]

I sail in the Mediterranean and use ECMWF the most closely followed by meteoblue because I find them the most accurate.

[Ruggerone]

I typically use the ECMWF model for the Salish Sea, but I also check the other models when needed. When traveling to places like Fiji, I use all of the models to see what seems to be best.

[chillipp]

@Jonathan-Finen ECMWF in Northern Germany.

[twall007]

HRRR is my preferred model.

[spike 2]

@Korina ecwmf in Canada b/c it's the most consistent forecast model for me and my area of Canada.

[Kim Gebhardt]

I use the AROME model for East Germany.

[Damiano Erre]

@Korina AROME in italy.
