      Is there any way in Windy to see how global model forecasts for a specific location and time have evolved over successive (or at 24 hr intervals) historic model runs?
      I find it one of the most useful indicators of forecast uncertainty (alongside comparing different models), but don't know how to do it without continuously downloading and compiling GRIB files.
      Ideally I would like to be able to see whether all previous forecasts from one model (for a time and area) are converging or not, in the same way I look to see whether GFS and ECMWF are converging over successive runs.

        Select a meteo. reporting station
        e.g. London Heathrow airport ...

        .... then "observation vs forecast"...

        1000013777.jpg

        ... and you'll see which model forecasts best temperature and/or wind speed
