Loading Windy.com - Weather Forecast 37.2.5 3

Basically tells you everything about what's going on short of geological details. It's fun to just explore the intricacies of the atmosphere and ocean, while still being able to observe and ingest useful information. Easy and endlessly customizable interface with more layers than you can shake a stick at. Go ahead and try: I just stood there dumbfounded, holding the stick like an idiot. I couldn't shake it at all. This is a beautiful app.

The most user-friendly weather map system in existence. I use this app all the time, but especially love it for the ability to see weather patterns throughout a range of regions. The map allows me to see which areas around me have the best potential for the wind. However, it is not at all limited to wind readings. All other weather features are useful for anyone. My only complaint is that the forecasted wind gusts tend to be missleadingly high. Otherwise the accuracy is good.

Wow. Simple layout with a LOT of detail at your fingertips should you choose to access it (see the sandwich menu). Select the layers you want -- or the weather model, even. I like that it gives projected rainfall AMOUNTS, rather than percentage of likelihood. Much more useful. Quite reliable, too. For all it's features, if it were unreliable, I would find another app. But it's become my go-to.

This app is perfect in so many ways. When I first started using it, I was a couple miles offshore in a sailboat and needed to know what the wind was going to be doing. Easy peasy - it shows that right away and it's probably the best app on the market for that. A couple weeks later I'm concerned with the wave height - lo and behold, Windy does that too. Is there fog nearby? The forecast map doesn't show much, but they have video feeds at certain locations and I can tap into those. The list goes on and on. It's the best broad-view weather app, in my opinion.

Excellent weather app. Loads of information available in a smooth and aesthetically-pleasing way. The GUI is relatively intuitive, though there are some parts that remain unexplained. A full built-in guide for this app would be very useful so that I could understand everything that it is showing me. Lastly, the real-time lightning feature is waaaaay cool-- I was freaking out about how cool it is when I first discovered it!

I really like the features of this app with regard to switching between various weather elements on the same map. If I had one issue, it's the home view when the app starts. it's always zoomed way out, so I have to zoom in to my city each time I start it up to see relevant local info. I've looked around for a way to save a desired default start up view, but just haven't been successful in finding it, if it exists. I'm probably missing something obvious. 😁

The worst thing about the app is the widget , it works when it wants to and most of the time it does not. Sometimes it goes days with out updating and forcing it to update will not make it update or even work . each station has its own issues , one shows 20 degrees cooler , one shows 20 degrees hotter then it actually is , we had a 75 degree day yesterday , your app told us it was 59 .. Lil off don't ya think ?

Many unique and attractive layers and maps, but one really large shortcoming: the ability to have more than one layer active at any one time. I subscribed for over a year hoping that they would change course, but despite many requests by others via their forums, I don't think they are inclined to add the feature. For me, having radar, storm track, warnings and frontal boundary layers active is a big deal, so I will be switching to an app that offers those capabilities.

While it offers a great veriety of data, it's not by the hour. In addition the home screen is clunky to use and difficult to see the forecast details, change locations, etc. Use it for the extras when you have a few minutes, but for a few seconds? You'll need a second app for a quick view of immediate weather, daily forecast and the like.

As a farmer, a weather app is much needed. For years I was using the Storm app. It gave me alerts when rain was about to start, nearby lightning strikes, and weather alerts. The radar was always on point too. The colors were defined. If there was any color overhead, 99% of the time there was some sort of precipitation occurring. Windy doesn't send notifications, and I can't trust the radar colors. Half the time a system will look bigger on Windy than another app. If changes were made, I'd use.
