Ecmwf Is perfect for me. Bologna, Italy

@Korina

For the Australian region, my order of preference is ECMWF then AccessG.

I use the "Compare Table" and "Wind Meteogram" regularly as a poor man's ensemble forecast tool for point locations.

Keep up the good work :)

@Korina I use the AROME forecast model for the region of the alps a lot.

@Korina I've started to use the met one in Wales UK . But early days.
Thanks.

ECMWF works pretty well, here in Hawaii , where unless it is a major storm approaching, every forecast is a guess.

[Endre Beky]

I use in Hungary the ECMWF model the most.

accuracy of forecasts depends on current and historical data.
windy fails to upload international pws' s!!
wu is currently most accurate forecast.

For Northern Europe ICON matches best the observed weather. D2 for short time forecasts and ICON EU otherwise.
ECMWF is a step down but otherwise second best. With Arome in France and other neighbouring countries I had mixed experiences.

For me, the ECMWF model is (mostly wind( in central europe region the most reliable one - used for paragliding :)

We absolutely love Windy, using the ECWF model here as we sail up and down the East Coast of Australia. Thank you for making such a good technical but very easy to use app. Team LAKOA !

@Korina I use the "compare" summary most, alongside swell predictions as I have non sailing spouce I have to be sure conditions at sea will not uduely upset her. David

In the med , it is ECMWF for me.

[Tablas]

For me ECMWF was the primary one for a long time (based on information about different models given in the application) - but since a year ago I actually use compare every time I check weather. I actually got used to it so much that I would like to have compare as a default mode in the application.

[ayup.gromit]

In the UK I use ICON-D2 and UKV if we have "normal" south westerlies, but when the wind goes into the east often METEROBLUE gives a more reliable prediction.

[euphoria.pw]

I usually look on the ECMWF but when the conditions tends to become unstable I compare the models in the app.

During exceptional uncertain conditions I use three extra governmental services, but still telly on the ECMWF as the median.

[eltriplet]

I mostly look at ECMWF which seems to be the most reliable in Barcelona Spain

[beaverbanker]

Of the forecasts on windy, I use the ecmwf the most. Please add the Canadian GEM-Global (gdps)

@Korina ciao Korina, i am using a lot arome for the wind and our sail regatta

[Marcelo Amaro]

@Korina I am addicted to Windy, I use it daily and also on my motorcycle trips here in Brazil and in South America, I use the ECMWF model because here in South America the coverage is better.

@Korina The ECMWF has served us stunningly well over the last five years. We've used ECMWF sailing in Puget Sound WA, SE Alaska, US Pacific Coast, Aegean Sea, Carribean Sea, and Sea of Cortez Mexico. We really appreciate the compare models tool.
