Windy’s maps and pictures look very pretty,
But of far greater importance to sailors is the accuracy of wind direction and strength. Windy is proving to be very very unreliable in Greece.
The forecasts invariably tend to be very general and do not reflect reality. Windy needs to compare actual conditions with its forecasts and amend its models accordingly. Sadly windy seems to focus its efforts on its fancy pictures rather then accuracy. Windy’s lack of inaccuracy is darn right dangerous for sailors using this app .
About time windy executives visited Greece on a boat and compared forecast verse reality.
Windy is quite good at predicting temperature for sunbathers but hopeless at warning sailors of wind conditions accurately
