      Hello Windy team,

      Regarding the "Dust Mass", I noticed that:
      1- In PC (windy.com) there is only one model "CAMS 40km" = ECMWF IFS
      2- In mobile app. there is only one model "GEOS-5 22km"
      I have 2 questions please:
      a- Which one is more accurate ?
      b- Can you provide the two models in both (windy.com) and the mobile app.

      Best Regards !
      Ali

        @Mr-Astro Hi, we are planning to implement only data from Copernicus (CAMS), which we consider as more reliable for this. However, mobile apps are delayed with the update, so that is the reason why you see different data.

          Thanks for your reply..
          Is there away to get GEOS-5 forecast in any website or app?
          I searched, but no visual forecast for that model.

          In fact I observed the Dust mass for a month with the ECMWF IFS it gives me very high numbers dust mass while the actual atmosphere is not dusty at all, This happened all the time and not once or twice, Should I do something to make it more accurate or do I miss something?
          Loc. of observation:
          24°29'18.2"N 39°27'12.9"E

            @Mr-Astro At this moment, we don't support this source of data, unfortunately.

              You can compare 3 layers in Windy, displaying small particles concentration in the atmosphere:

              • Dust mass
              • Aerosol
              • PM 2.5

              All of them are not measured at same level and in same units.
