      We use Icon EU for forecasting sailing conditions in the Med. We will double check NEMS the on the day.

            I have been using the UKV model since itโ€™s introduction and have found it very reliable in the Bristol Channel
            Prior to that I mainly use ECMWF or GFS

            Keep up the great work ๐ŸŒง๏ธ๐Ÿ›ฅ

                  @Korina I use the ECMWF model. I find it very accurate for where I live in Australia. I use it for my fishing trips and crossing a large bar. Windy is great to use and I recommend it to many people.

                    It seem to me quite reliable to use ECMWF data...

                        @Korina depends where we are in the world to which model we use. At present in the Mediterranean we rely mainly upon ICON-EU. Whenever discussing Windy with others we always explain the benefits of comparison of models. Thank you for the App.

                              @Korina I have a tendency just to look up, look around and make my own forecast ๐Ÿ˜œ

                                El Modelo de mayor acertividad en el ECMWF y le realizo la comparacion con el GFS para poder tener una claridad de una mayor probabilidad de precipitaciones, fortaleciendolo con el ICON.

                                  Hello :)

                                  I mostly compare ECMWF to MBLUE. I found that they are most accurate for my region which is Bulgaria. ECMWF is more correct for rain prediction for me. But for long term MBLUE gives me a reliable forecast.

                                  Thank you

                                    @Korina one hundred percent windy is the best forecast!

                                        I use MBLUE mostly as it seems to be more accurate in West Sussex UK for temperature, rain, sun & wind. Probably as it has the nearest meter.

                                            ECMWF is by far the most accurate in my area
