Integration of ARPEGE and WRF models for Premium Subscribers
-
Dear Windy Team,
First of all, I would like to thank you for the quality of your platform. As a Premium subscriber, I find the access to high-resolution models like ICON-D2 and AROME-HD invaluable for my daily weather monitoring in Northern France.
However, to make the tool even more comprehensive for advanced users, I would like to suggest the addition of two key models to your database:
ARPEGE (Météo-France): While we have AROME for short-term and ECMWF for long-term, ARPEGE would be a fantastic bridge. It is specifically optimized for Europe and often proves more accurate than global models for regional pressure transitions at J+3 / J+4.
WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting): Integrating a high-resolution WRF run (like the 3km or 4km versions) would be a game-changer for monitoring convective systems and local wind effects. It is a world-class standard that would perfectly complement your existing high-end suite.
As a power user, I believe these additions would significantly increase the value of the Premium subscription, providing a more diverse "ensemble-like" approach for professional and enthusiast forecasting.
Thank you for considering this request. I look forward to seeing Windy continue to grow as the best weather tool on the market.
Best regards,

Hi Windy team,
I’m reaching out to follow up on my previous suggestion regarding the integration of ARPEGE and WRF models into the platform, specifically for Premium subscribers.
As these models provide high-quality data and are crucial for accurate forecasting across Europe, I was wondering if this proposal is currently being considered or evaluated by your technical team?
Thanks again for the amazing work you do on the app!
Best regards,
Vincent (France).
