Since its launch four years ago, the weather website windy.com has grown steadily. Today, it offers 35 forecast parameters, all in a visually appealing, impressively clear form, either on PC or mobile devices under Android and iOS. No other free portal even comes close to this range of functions.
Windy, a development by Czech internet entrepreneur Ivo Lukacovic, is so good that even professional sailors and scientists now use it. The site is also a favourite among regatta and blue water sailors - if only to be able to better classify the forecasts of other weather services.
Long-standing DWD meteorologist Professor Dr Ralf Brauner and offshore professional Boris Herrmann have analysed the most important forecast levels and tools for YACHT. As part of the major navigation special, they describe on eight pages what Windy now offers, what new functions are available and how sailors should proceed step by step if they want to put together their own personalised route weather.
A must for all skippers who want to expand their knowledge in winter so that they can make even better decisions when planning their trips next spring.
