Predictive models used in Windy.app
A global model by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. Considered the best for precipitation and cloudiness. Resolution – 14 km. Updates every 12 hours, providing forecasts for 10 days.
The US Global Forecast System, originally created for aviation. Updated 4 times a day, providing forecasts for 10 days.
While the GFS27 interpolates data for every dot within a 27 km x 27 km square, the GFS+ always shows only the maximum result in each square. Updates 4 times a day, forecasting for 10 days.
A global model by Deutscher Wetterdienst (German Meteorological Service).
For Europe, higher resolution (7 km) is available for the ICON model, making it even more precise than the ECMWF. The ICON with a 13 km resolution is the global version available worldwide.
— ICON7 – updates 4 times a day, every 6 hours. Provides forecasts for the next 5 days.
— ICON13 – updates 8 times a day, every 3 hours. Provides forecasts for the next 5 days.
