Due to a particularly complex terrain morphology, the currently available models face significant difficulties in the Southern Italy region, often resulting in low precision or poor reliability for local microclimates.

Without demanding specific models from those previously suggested, I would invite you to carry out an assessment of the current coverage in our area. It would be highly beneficial to evaluate the implementation of some alternative model of your choice — preferably high-resolution — that could fill these gaps and improve the reliability of the service for Southern Italy.

I agree. The app should ideally provide a high-resolution forecast model like MOLOCH for Italy. Of course, it would be fair to have a high-resolution model for every country, but I understand that the costs would be enormous. However, Italy has a very complex orography and is located in a strategic and meteorologically interesting position in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

Dear @Suty do you think it is possible to add one of these models on windy?

I agree with you. For central and southern Italy (except for Sardinia, which has AROME HD), there isn’t a decent high-resolution model available. The ones currently offered are practically useless given the complex orography and terrain of the Italian peninsula.

I really hope a high-resolution model covering these areas will be added at some point. Windy is now a cutting-edge product, so I would expect to have access to quality data — at least for certain regions, especially for those of us paying for the premium version.
