Hi. We currently discovered windy for our avalanche forecasting activities in Norway. A very versatile, fast and easy to use tool. And you have a base map that actually shows the location of cities at different scales. There are many features of your solution that are highly appreciated.

We have observed that you take inn data from global as well as regional weather models, depending where one zoomes in on the globe. Is there any chance that you take inn AROME nordic into your solution. The data should be openly available from SMHI in Sweden and met.no here in Norway. The model runs on a 2.5 km grid and reproduces the mountains and fjords much better than ECMWF.

Here are site to start:
https://api.met.no
https://opendata.smhi.se/apidocs/
The model name is MetCoOp Ensemble Prediction System. I did not find an api for this, but there should be open access. Ask SMHI or met.no.

And for the arctic arome:
https://www.met.no/en/projects/The-weather-model-AROME-Arctic/about
https://www.met.no/en/projects/The-weather-model-AROME-Arctic/data_access

Please have a look at this. The scandinavians talk not much, but when they talk, they talk about the weather. You will much applause and plent more users if you integrate the nordic models.

Regards, Christian

Hi again

I made an inquiry with my friends at met.no and they sent me the following link to the model data. These are netcdf files. Should be easy for you to implement data from here.

Dear developers
For us living in the arctic north of Europe, we frequently have to handle the weather phenomena "polar low". Fast developing and small low pressure systems that are very intense and decisive for the weather in northern Norway, Sweden and the high Arctic. The Norwegian Meteorological institute has therefore together with the SMHI and FMI developed regional models at high resolution to capture such systems. We use Windy for the avalanche warning every day and it is a big draw back that these models are not included in Windy. Is there any chance you could do that? Cheers, Christian

Hi again. Summer is coming to an end and we are again preparing for the next winter and avalanche season. It would be greatly appreciated if you could consider to show results from Arome Nordic and Arome Arctic in Windy. The modells are the base for the yr.no web site which is operational since years, so there should be no doubt on the quality of the model results. After all, the modern meteorology was founded in Bergen / Norway.... ;-)

Hi. Thank you for your fast answer. I am not the expert here, but I am quite sure, that this data IS available openly. Check out this page:
https://data.met.no
Here are human access as well as machine access points. The staff at met.no is usually very helpful, so I encourage you to contact them with any practical questions. Ventusky uses this data, so it should be easily available.
