Windy

Weather radar, wind and waves forecast

Visit Windy

Windy is a global weather visualization platform that presents animated forecast and observation data on an interactive map. It brings together radar, satellite imagery, wind, rain, temperature, clouds, waves, thunderstorms, hurricane tracking, rain accumulation and altitude pressure layers, with particle animation and a 3D view. Spot forecasts provide local conditions, while airport data includes METAR, TAF and NOTAM reports, and weather stations and buoys contribute SYNOP codes.

Forecast models available on the map include ECMWF, GFS, ICON and NEMS, alongside additional models. The platform is accessible through a web interface and mobile apps, with a Premium edition and a login option for account access.
