WINDY APP Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Purchased my first SUP 🥹

  Low wind is the key to my greatest paddles. I really like the Windy app. Mornings are generally more calm both for the water's surface and for fewer people up. 8am is generally my target time to be on the water. Source: 11 months ago

• Windy.com or Windy.app for sailing?

  I recently bought Windy.app and found that my friend sailing is using Windy.com. They both seem to almost do the same thing, but I generally get a bit more sailing info from Windy.app. Not sure which are more accurate or if they do the same thing. Apparently Windy.com used to be windity or something, then windy.app came into play in 2015, then windity changed their name to windy.com in 2017 and it's confusing when... Source: about 1 year ago

• Public Transit in Tampa

  The Windy app (https://windy.app/) may also help you to predict where/when in Tampa Bay the storms are gonna hit - wherever the winds converge, that's where the storms develop. Source: over 1 year ago

• Why listening to your weather radio is important. That’s what a 70MPH wind gust looks like.

  Why listen to staticky assed weather radio when you can use windy.app or weather.gov and see what's going to be going on well into the future, and in places where you haven't arrived at yet? Source: almost 2 years ago

• Anyone else obsessed with the weather?

  And it was a NYTimes newlsetter called "Read Like The Wind" that mentioned Windy (although I think it might be different than the app now that I see there's a windy.com and windy.app 😅 — either way, they're both cool!). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Any wingers in BC, canada? Advice for beginners

  I'm considering getting into wing foil surfing as well. I'm looking at windy.app for wind speeds near Jericho and it looks like 3-10 knots is not uncommon. Can you still get on plane at these speeds? Any setup recommendations? There is an Ensis dealer on Facebook selling some stuff that has good reviews. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is this severe weather headed for us?

  Sorry, I know I am a bit late to the thread, but I have two local weather teams to mention that will (and do) provide a more accurate weather forecast and updates than The Chronicle. The first is Texas Storm Chasers and the other is Space City Weather. Both of these teams are local and strive to provide the most accurate forecasting that they can. Also, for a good app, I would recommend Windy, they are far more... Source: about 2 years ago

• Windy.com: See the wind, temperature, rain and air quality around you

• Is it supposed be that bad tonight?

  Not sure why you think you'll get accurate weather reporting from Reddit, anyway download the Windy app it has an interactive weather radar that's pretty good. Source: over 2 years ago

• How do u forecast ground swells ?

  I literally never get sea sick but those big ass 1-2m swells can really get to me , I normally use windy.app which is accurate but I dont think it accounts for swells, it showed me wave size are about 3-4 ft the other day, in reality it was 1-1.5m swells, and its happening often.

• r/SpaceX Starship SN15 Flight Test No. 1 Discussion & Updates Thread

  Just looked up the stats from windy.app for around Boca Chica (Port Isabel is nearest) and Cape Canaveral, and showing them here. Certainly does seem more extreme wind periods this time of year around Boca Chica than the Cape. Summer does look better overall. Source: almost 3 years ago
