About this app

The app combines highly accurate weather forecast for your location with a 3D map showing development of weather in a broader area in a very interesting way. This allows you to see where precipitation is going to come from or where the wind is blowing from. The uniqueness of the app comes from the amount of data displayed. Forecast of weather, precipitation, wind, cloud cover, atmospheric pressure, snow cover and other meteorological data for different altitudes is available for the whole world. Moreover, the app is completely free of ads.

WIND ANIMATION
The Ventusky application solves weather displaying in an interesting way. Wind is displayed using streamlines which clearly portray the continuous development of weather. Airflow on Earth is always in motion and the streamlines depict this motion in an amazing way. This makes the interconnection of all atmospheric phenomena obvious.

WEATHER FORECAST
Weather forecast for the first three days is available in the app in one-hour steps. For other days, it’s available in three-hour steps. Users can also look up sunrise and sunrise times in a given place.

WEATHER MODELS
Thanks to the Ventusky application, visitors get data directly from the numerical models that, just a few years ago, were used solely by meteorologists. The app collects data from the most accurate numerical models. Besides the well-known data from the American GFS and HRRR models, it also displays data from the Canadian GEM model and the German ICON model, which is unique thanks to its high resolution for the whole world. Two models, EURAD and USRAD, are based on current radar and satellite readings. These models are able to show precisely current precipitation in US and Europe.

WEATHER FRONTS
You can also display weather fronts. We have created a neural network that predicts the positions of cold, warm, occluded, and stationary fronts based on data from weather models. This algorithm is unique, and we are the first on the world who makes global fronts forecast available to users.

As a weather nerd I love this weather app and I think the premium layers are well worth the £2.99 annual fee. I love the predictive radar and the way you can switch between the different radar providers to get the complete picture of the weather that is heading towards you. Also, I love that you can switch between the different weather models and look days ahead to see how weather develops. Fantastic app.

very cool app! looks very nice, makes me want to know the weather! Though I've found two minor issues. when you rotate the earth, the rotation keeps momentum. until it hits new Zealand, or the +12/-12 hours timezone. And today, the east coast of Greenland at some zoom level was not smooth, as if loading the data was slow. it happened jest once, it's noticable, but doesn't affect the overall app.

Why has the "Sea" feature been removed that allowed people to see the wave height around the world? - Thanks for the response. The issue has been resolved, and the wave height is visible again. I had not changed the settings before, that's why I wasn't aware this would be how to turn it back on.

Hi Kathrin, thank you for using Ventusky. It is still there. Make sure that you have AUTO model in the Setting section, please. Some models have only limited amount of data.

What's new

1) New design and colors
2) Ability to set values on the map (size, density)
3) New Aladin model in high resolution for Central Europe
4) Bug fixes
