i recently switched from a less accurate model - based app/ website that shall remain nameless.

I am now using windy.com (for the free ECMWF ? forecast) and the commensurate Android app and I love it so far. Maybe it was the model's fault all those times I felt let down and just shrugged it off to the nature of wind.

I've been watching windy.com too. Only thing I don't like is that I have to watch video of the map changing color, instead of just reading a table. Lately its always blue, so I guess I have the time to watch.....

Randy, if you click a place on the map, you can open up a char at the bottom of the page - they have a 10 day forecast thats available for ECMWF.
