meteoblue issue: Charleston, SC: Dorian
-
The date today is 2019-09-04. Comparing model outputs using the compare tool, I notice that all of the models widely agree on maximum wind speeds and timing for Dorian effects in Charleston, SC. See: https://www.windy.com/multimodel/32.790/-79.940?32.262,-79.940,8 .
This is with the glaring exception of the 'meteoblue' model, which has predicted 1/2 of the wind speed of the other models and very different timing. When I go on the meteoblue web site and look at their 'meteogram' for Charleston (https://www.meteoblue.com/en/weather/forecast/meteograms/charleston_united-states-of-america_4574324), the values there do agree with the other models and do not match with what is presented on Windy.com. So...I'm wondering if there is some disconnect here. Perhaps there is a geo-registration issue for the model on Windy? It is wildly off by my estimation.Thank you!

the only available data are from NAM, ECMWF and GFS models. -
Funny thing is meteoblue seems to be the only accurate one with current temps and wind speeds

@reisb4
Yes, but ... what are the current wind speeds?
As I see for now (5 Sep/ 7Z),
wx. stations in the area report wind speeds ranging from 4 to 31 kts !!! -

Just asking.
As Dorian is moving north, what model forecasted better the situation in your area?
I saw wind reports (from airport) 45 kts gusts 60 kts (50 gust 70 mph).
