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

In the area of Colorado where I live, the forecasts provided by the local TV stations are often unreliable due to the mountainous area. As a newer subscriber to Windy, I have just started using the compare model’s feature to see how accurate they are and to learn when to use each model.
-
In Romania I use the ECMWF model.

ECMWF! It’s my fave

Hi, using the Met Office UKV model most of the time.
I am on the fringe of forecast area here in NW-Germany. Still it seems to give the best forecast (6 to 8 h). I am amazed by the high resolution it has. Non apparent with ECMWF.
May be I am biased, as I used to live in the UK for 13 years and I know how difficult and unpredictable some weather situations can be.My motto used to be: if you don't like the forecast. Then pick another one!
Keep up the good work.

I am using the GFS model. Just today it was the most pessimistic of all the models and ideed it actually rained in the end 😁
-
ECWMF for Belgium as it provides longer predictions
-
@Korina In New Zealand, I look at ECMWF the most, and I use Compare a lot, and watch the models. The 'best' change least as the models converge toward the actual weather that happens. As you say, it gives confidence if they agree more, early. Cheers, Kurt

@Korina I'm at Pipiwai Northland and the GFS Model seems to be more accurate for me.
