      Windy in magazines (not only on TV)!

      https://xcmag.com/magazine-articles/making-the-most-of-weather-site-windy-com/

      Cool :) But it seems that I can't read the article without being a subscriber - not even 1 article as a 'free trial'...

      It would be nice if they would consent to it being republished here on the Windy.com forum, although I do notice that the article seems to be from September 2017.

      WINDY is everywhere :)

            Windy maps on Ouest-France website. They use often Windy map, this time for the storm Miguel which is predicted tomorrow on french coasts.

            They show 5 maps from Windy in this article.

                  Today weather forecasts over the Atlantic are strategic for the skippers of the Transatlantic race Jacques Vabre. This race, also called Route du café, from Le Havre in Normandy to Salvador de Bahia in Brazil, is a double-handed race.
                  In the video here below, Vincent Riou and Sébastien Simon on one of the favorite boats are discussing about the different meteorological options... using Windy maps, including smartphone screen to get the laster model runs.

                  More information in English below about the race and skippers including Alex Thompson, Boris Herrmann (well known by Windy followers) and many others ...

                              Just for fun: sites specialized in meteorology (which provide their own forecasts and weather maps), also use windy.com, e.g. https://unwetteralarm.com/severe-weather-europe/: toto.jpg

                                  Hurricane Willa was in October 2018. If you remember to have seen it on TV, you have an excellent memory !

                                    Another side-by-side animations - one from windy.com, the other from NOAA - on some Hawaii weather site https://www.staradvertiser.com/hawaii-weather/.
                                    As one can see on screenshot, even if windy itself is free of adds, other media use windy maps on their own full of adds web pages...

                                      I have seen windy a good bit on local news in the US. In particular during Hurricane season.

                                        Yet another weather web site ("Friendly Forecast", they say), full of ads, where almost all weather maps are picked from windy.com: https://www.friendlyforecast.com/AU/New-South-Wales/Kempsey/Moparrabah/Marine/.
                                        Should they maybe pay a fee to Windy.com? :o)))
