Predict Wind models - which one?


Recommended Posts

Predictwind has all the model validation data available.

The validation tab is under 'forecasts'.

This quantifies which model is most accurate against observations. This way you don't need to listen to old wives tails about which model is most accurate.

That, and what Bad Kitty says. For me, the whole point of PW is 6 models side by side, if they all agree, you have high confidence in the forecast, if they all say something different, role the dice. Every other site (Metservice, windy etc) only use one model. Each model is sometimes good, sometimes not depending on the situation etc. The trick is knowing which ones are good on any given day, hence viewing 6 on the same page and getting a handle on uncertainty very quickly.
