I use windy.com all the time before I head out fishing. It's really amazing how accurate it is also.

I use windy to plan sailing trips, but I actually prefer predictwind (more specific to boating) and has a lot more data, though requires a subscription. I'll check predictwind against windy to get an accurate picture. Buoyweather is also pretty good.

I knew which one you were talking about, without even opening the thread

If I ever had a doubt that I was a weather nerd, I can let that rest now

I'm with you on this.
When I saw the thread title, I thought, they couldn't possibly be referring to windy.com, could they?

I use it every day at work to maintain the broad picture of regional weather and, during the summer storm season, to watch for storm clusters.

I'm glad they finally got the name right. Used to be windyty. No?

Holy shit! It looks like a Hurricane is brewing off the Washington coast!

Pretty popular website in our neck of the woods around hurricane season ;-)

It was insanely windy last night.

Long Chile was a silly place.

I love that site. I moved from Minnesota to Portland, OR about 5 years ago. Always fun to look at MN’s weather in the winter - like right now: it is from 15-30F colder than the states surrounding it. So happy to get away from those winters.

Why is Upington, South Africa the hottest spot on earth today (according to windy.com)? 97 degrees farenheit! What gives?

War is god

It is. Thanks for sharing.

Big windy user here, helps me plan bike rides.

right now Windy says it's 11 degrees warmer here than what it actually is. Fake News

Just an FYI for anyone using iOS, there is a Windy app too.

If you are a Canuck that engages in gratuitous bashing of the US, you are probably on my Iggy List. So, save your self a bunch of typing a response unless you also feel the need to gratuitously bash me. If so, have fun.
