      I find ECMWF the most consistent.

          @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 😜

                        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

                                      @Korina MBLUE seems to work best for Minnesota

                                        Im a ocean sailor from Argentine, sailing high latitude (more than 50 degree). I always compare the four models !!! Its more accurate and make more safety our navigation...
                                        Recomendation, always compare all models to plan a route

                                          @Korina Tracy from Texas here & we're melting. A combination of Basic and GFS helps me pray for rain & a change in the jet stream.

                                            @Korina NAM and HRRR seem to be more accurate where I live.
