      Confirmed today - see the screenshot and in the 8.00 morning the model had even zero rain. Guess what, it rained basically whole afternoon till eveningSmartSelect_20230802_161346_Windy.jpg

        @klepid Maybe the ECMWF model isn't handling precipitation very well in your area....welcome to forecasting weather.
        There is nothing Windy can do about this - this is the guidance model itself.

          Windy (no diffirent to the other forecast apps) is not able to modell from various data sources (servers and radars) and that is why forecasting is less accurate. Data are available. This is my expectation from forecasting apps and ready to pay for that.

            @klepid Correct me if I'm wrong, you're saying you expect weather forecasting apps to develop blended guidance models utilizing all the available model outputs?

            This is not something easily done, not many organizations out there are capable of developing a model that can take all of that data in and provide a blended guidance model output. That type of technology is still young - but most certainly improving. I only know of one, the NBM, I'd be interested to learn if there are more out there.

              @Wheats Yes, I have realized (checking varoious providers/apps) that such expectation is a bit advanced. I will check the one you mention. Thx.
