Windy is a popular weather forecasting platform that provides a wide range of weather data and forecasts. While Windy primarily operates as an online platform, it is possible to access offline weather forecasts using the mobile app.
When you use Windy's mobile app, the app downloads a small amount of weather data that includes a basic forecast for your location. This forecast data is stored on your device, allowing you to access it even when you are offline.
Windy's offline forecast feature is made possible by its use of global weather models that can be run offline. These models simulate weather patterns and generate forecasts based on historical weather data and real-time observations. The app downloads a small subset of this data to provide you with a basic forecast that can be accessed even when you are not connected to the internet.
It is important to note that Windy's offline forecasts are not as detailed or accurate as its online forecasts, which are constantly updated with the latest weather data. If you need more detailed or up-to-date weather information, you will need to connect to the internet and access Windy's online platform.
