Windy.app 13.3.0

I recently had the opportunity to try out the windy.app, a comprehensive wind, waves, and weather forecast app designed specifically for wind sports enthusiasts. This app caters to a wide range of activities, including surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, sailing, fishing, and more.

One of the standout features of windy.app is its wind report, forecast, and statistics. With its wind map, accurate wind compass, and wind meter, users can easily stay informed about current and upcoming wind conditions. The app also provides helpful information on wind gusts and wind directions, which is particularly useful for extreme wind sports.

Another great feature of windy.app is its wind alert system. Users can set up personalized alerts to be notified of wind, storm, and tornado warnings through push notifications. This feature ensures that users are always aware of any potential weather hazards.

In addition to the real-time data and forecast, windy.app offers a comprehensive weather history archive spanning from 2012 to 2021. This archive allows users to view past wind data, temperature variations, and atmospheric pressure. It's an excellent resource for selecting the best time to plan a trip or visit a particular spot.

The app also provides a local forecast from NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration). This includes temperature readings in Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin, humidity levels, wind speed measurements in various units (m/s, mph, km/h), and precipitation information for up to 10 days with a 3-hour time step. The ability to choose between metric or imperial units ensures that users can personalize their weather data preferences.

For those interested in ocean conditions and fishing forecasts, windy.app offers a wave forecast feature. Users can check on the state of waves, sea swells, and overall ocean or sea conditions, making it an invaluable tool for anyone planning a day out on the water.

The animated wind tracker feature provided by windy.app is particularly helpful for sailors, yachters, and kiting enthusiasts looking to make the most out of light wind conditions. Additionally, the app offers cloud base and dewpoint data, which is essential for paragliders hoping for a pleasant experience.

With over 30,000 spots worldwide, windy.app caters to every wind sports enthusiast's needs. The spots are conveniently sorted by type and area, making it easy for users to find their preferred locations. Users can also add their favorite spots to a favorites list for quick access.

A community aspect is incorporated into windy.app through spot chats. Users can share information about weather conditions and wind direction in a chat with other local wind sports enthusiasts. Additionally, those interested in becoming spot leaders for their favorite locations can request the creation of dedicated chats by emailing the app's support team.

To ensure accurate and up-to-date information, windy.app sources online data from nearby weather stations. This allows users to access real-time weather data from trusted sources conveniently.

One standout feature of windy.app is its offline mode. Users can activate this mode to check forecasts and plan activities even without an internet connection. This is incredibly useful for users who find themselves in remote areas or places with limited connectivity.

In terms of compatibility, windy.app supports a wide range of wind sports activities, including kitesurfing, windsurfing, surfing, sailing, yachting, paragliding, fishing, snowkiting, snowboarding, skiing, skydiving, kayaking, wakeboarding, cycling, hunting, and golf. No matter your wind sports interest, this app has you covered.

The windy.app offers a free version that provides access to basic app functions. However, for those looking to unlock the full potential of the app, a WINDY PRO Account subscription is available. This subscription offers access to all app functions. Subscription lengths include a 1-month option with a 3-day free trial or a 1-year option with a 7-day free trial.
