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

        @Korina I use the ECMWF as it has proven the most reliable

          @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

                          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.

                                        @Korina In Belgium I use ECMWF and ICON. Both are very good.

                                            @Korina I prefer the Mixed models view. The more information, the better, as far as I’m concerned. For different seasons, and different conditions, I prefer various models.
