@justinlimbo see https://library.wmo.int/pmb_ged/wmo_8_en-2012.pdf
Guide to Meteorological Instruments
and Methods of Observation of WMOThank you!

Usually most of the forecasters use the European model forecast predictions!
-
@csabatatar Such a good explanation, csabatatar, thank you very, very much. It was indeed the "observation vs forecast" representation that I didn't understand. And now I do!!. Thank you!
-
@LAR-48
... as a guide line.
For more detailed forecasts they use (local) Limited Area Models. -
@ivo Marvellous and impressive. Keep it up.
-
Great feature! I love it
-
"Observation vs. forecast" information is nowadays a MUST! Well done!
-
Give us the old style back pleaseeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!
-
awwsome could someone please explain how to read it all? why doesnt it show the rain icon or a sunny/cloudy icon all the time?
-
Like it a lot makes it quicker and easier at a glance
-
I like it! very cool to have it up on the screen. Well done team!
-
Doing a Bonzer job ,keep up the good work
-
Very nice! Would be even nicer if you can compare to all forecasts in one window!
Thank You ! Good Job(or hobby)! -
I am really having trouble with this feature, cause I cant find it. Can someone help me pls?

@Gabriel-Ramiro
Just select « Reported wind » or « Reported temperature » to display the weather stations near your location. Then click on the weather station you want to compare the observations of this WS and the forecast by each models used by Windy. -
Terrific. Useful to see the actual vs the predicted for an estimate of the accuracy.
-
Really like it, very interesting
-
I love it. Looking forward to seeing colours in the above zero Celsius range locally.
-
I don't like it, it is important to me to see the graph of the observed wind and gusts just like it was before, that way you can see trends and make reasonable predictions. PLEASE bring back the old style plots or at least make an option for people to revert to them if they want to. I will be switching to Windalert for the time being, it's a shame Windy was perfect for me before this update.

While this is a good idea I found the old format more useful for seeing just what the wind gusts have been doing. For knowing if my 18 wheeler is in danger of blowing over, knowing how crazy the wind gusts are is more useful to me.
Thank you,
