No worries Duane. The app is great and much appreciated!

I would love to have a bit more time resolution also. If there is any way to provide it. But even as it is I love this app. I also wish I could zoom in the map a bit more. But these are quibbles.

@sdryer Hello and Welcome to the Forum and Thank You for Using Flowx

[Alex]

@duane

Flowx is focused on weather model data which is good for medium term forecasts and planning. That said, Flowx can serve for near-term forecasts with the inclusion of RainViewer radar and HRRR,

As the main focus of Flowx is medium term, 3-7 days, with the exception of HRRR. Of what use are short term models, such as Arome ?

[BrianLY-38]

@Alex short term forecasts are just as important as mid to long-term they provide semi-current conditions and establish possible trends

[Alex]

Trends, yes. But that’s about all.
Of no more use than NOAA GFS.
So, for a UK resident in West Wales what is the justification for anything more than a Silver subscription?

Is semi-current even a technical term ?

[BrianLY-38]

personal preference. additional info, settings etc. comparing the data to other models. no one model is perfect that’s why they use multiple models to guess/predict what the weather might do

[Alex]

Thanks for that. Very helpful.
