      @Korina I'm mostly in France, Ar么me works the best for me.

        I use the ECMWF in conjunction with GFS for SW Va for short term forecasting. The ECMWF is pretty accurate! NOAA needs work 馃槅.

            @Korina ECMWF is the real OG for Venice metropolitan area. I commute to work by bicycle and that model has saved me multiple times. Rock on! \m/

              For Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada I find the ECMWF model supplemented by the HRRR model best. HRRR is far superior for forecasting temperature.

                    @Korina I have logged over 290000nm delivering yachts to destinations all over the world. I have been using Windy since it's inception. I prefer the ECMWF model.

                      @Korina I use the NAM for short time more accurate and will compare with the ECM MODEL.

                        Thanks for a great app! I use mostly ECMWF as it seems to match well for the Nordic countries. I also use TAF & Metar for closest airport when I need more specific predictions in a smaller timeframe.

                            Hola, escribo desde Valpra铆so, Chile, soy meteor贸loga y llevo a帽os utilizando Windy, es una aplicaci贸n muy amigable de entender. El modelo que m谩s uso es el europeo ECMWF, creo tiene mayor certeza en las variables meteorol贸gicas que otros. Debo recalcar tambi茅n que, al tener cuenta Premium, tambi茅n me facilita el trabajo de pron贸stico, ya que binda mayor detalle. Un abrazo.

                              @Korina My most used model is ECMWF, followed by NAM. Just seems most useful. :)

                                  @Korina for Germany ICON D2 has proven to be the most accurate for this location.

                                    @Korina I use the ECMWF model for the most part. It's great to have options though!!!
                                    I also compare actuals to the current forecast models and see which one has been trending the closest to actuals and I'll make decisions weighted by that comparison.

                                        I primarily use EMCWF just because it's the default here, but I will usually click through all that are available (at least GFS) in advance of significant weather to get an idea of how much consensus there is (or isn't).

                                            @Korina for South Africa I most often us ECMWF as it's forecast is most accurate fir my location. But i like comparing all models as different models are more accurate in forecasting different elements such as Temp, Wind, clouds and percipitation. Best weather app by far!!!
