@gabou971
Yes I’ve seen it.

[jmh2002]

Yes, and Windy is also appearing on multiple YouTube channels that are covering the Route du Rhum too.

[TomSlavkovsky]

@jmh2002 @Gabou971 is it available online somewhere?

[Nicolas.A]

Windy at one point was on the weather channel but that was a pretty rare time

For English speakers who love sailing, I recommend this one.
A weather map is shown at the end, but not very clear if it’s from Windy.

And this one from Phil Sharp Racing. Here no doubt it’s a Windy screen.

[jmh2002]

Among others I'm mostly following these channels for the Route du Rhum:

• World on Water (sailing channel, english): https://www.youtube.com/user/mobydk2/videos

• Gitana Team, Ultim Tri (sailing channel, french/english): https://www.youtube.com/user/gitanateam/videos

Unfortunately much destruction has already been suffered by the leading boats, with multiple retirements due to damage.

In general Windy is now everywhere, used on many many maritime related news videos, especially across europe.

I'm not sure that this is Windy actually (unless it has been customised) - the fonts, colours, and small details look a bit different:

@jmh2002 It's not Windy, it is Windfinder app.

[jmh2002]

Thanks! :)

[Lakeguy]

Yes. I’ve seen the Windy format used on a local TV station.

[jmh2002]

Today on World on Water again (sailing channel, english) as part of the RORC Transatlantic Race coverage there was 5 minutes of Windy from around the 11 minute mark in the video:

Here I managed to find the original article and video on the RORC website: http://rorctransatlantic.rorc.org/race-updates/weather-predictions-for-the-start-five-minutes-with-nacho.html

Windy is everywhere :)
