Understanding the Compare Forecast Feature in Windy.com

[peckman1964]

@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.

ECMWF model all the way for Great Lakes

@Korina Nova Scotia here: ECMWF and GFS

@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!

@Korina I like the detail in HRRR

[suzeomni]

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.

[AB BALOCH]

I use ecmwf

@Korina
ECMWF is by far the most accurate in my area

[sstadler]

@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.

[wojkot]

@Korina i use Ecmwf raraly metoblue when in mountians or near the lakes

@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.

@Korina I use the ECMWF model the most for sailing in the Med and western Atlantic
