      Thank you for adding MSM model(JMA)
      I'm really looking forward to it being added, so I'm happy.

      I use original MSM a lot in Japan, and we often use it in m/s instead of kt.
      After comparing several times, I feel that MSM wind speed of Windy is same as m/s.
      Could you please check again?

        Hi @shyori310, I am not sure I understand Your question. What should be checked? That wind values are correct? Internally, we use m/s. Other units (km/h, mph, kt, bft) are computed from m/s.

        Units can be switched by clicking the legend in the lower right corner:

          Do you mean that MSM wind speed forecast expressed in knots or in m/s gives the same values ?
          In this example values expressed in m/s and in kt are consistent

          5 m/s = 9,71922 knots = about 10 kt
