      Re: Which model used for currents/ waves and what resolution?
      The German Weather Service / Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) offers free wave models on global, European und German scale:

      Area Resolution Wind source Boundary conditions Time horizon
      WAM-global 0.0625° x 0.0625° ICON – T+174h
      WAM-europe 0.05° x 0.10° ICON-EU WAM-global T+78h
      WAM-coast (Germany) 30" x 50" ~900m COSMO-D2 WAM-europe T+48h

      Maybe this can be added as another model option?

        @chstdu I know the developers are currently working on bringing the global ICON model into Windy. I would assume they would also add the wave models from ICON since they should be connected.
