I agree that weather evolution is not linear, but it would be an approximation that would improve user experience a lot. Those are not "wrong" interpolated values, they could create a new forecast that involves GFS datapoints (for example) to produce a nice and smooth animation.

Perhaps an idea they could implement in the premium version!

Dear Windy team, I am a huge fan of the app and love how you are becoming the best weather app in the world.

I wonder if it is possible to make animations smoother? Instead of updating every ~.5 seconds for each 3h time frame, would it be possible to insert more frames in between (perhaps, through a linear interpolation) so that the animation showed up as a very smooth video with many frames per second?

I believe that would positively impact user experience, and potentially increase user engagement and ultimately donation to the app.

All the best!
