Description
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. 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 or air quality. 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.

Complete coverage of systems of weather
In the Midwest a person needs to know all aspects of current and future aspects of storms, wind direction, velocity, rain, snow, wind gusts, duration of event. It’s not enough to know “current conditions”, you better have some idea of what’s around the corner. Love the coverage.
Was wonderful with future projections but now that feature was removed
Love the app but the app no longer has the future projections available.
Almost Great
It’s one of the best weather apps I’ve found since Weather Underground turned into garbage many years ago. Still, it’s awkward to use. There needs to be easier ways to set the current location and reset the view to “current time” after sliding into the future. The interface is design over function and is often frustrating. Again though, it’s better than 99% of the weather apps out there and at least isn’t owned by The Weather Channel or Accuweather…yet.
Senior Corrosion Tech
It is a good tool to have for supporting documentation.
Beautiful and informative
I love this app. Beautiful design, great weather information. Can’t believe it’s free. Unfortunately, I don’t need the features that would make the upgrade to subscription level worth it - I don’t like paying subscription fees for any app - but I would willingly pay a reasonable purchase price for what is provided here for free. Only improvement I would suggest is being able to fully collapse the daily weather info on the bottom and have the full screen available for the radar/wind graphics.
Dew point
I got this app because it said it shows the dew points but I can’t seem to find where the dew points are located in the app?
Best for truckers
All information we need wind, storms, tornado, rain, temperatures, pressure etc is very understandable. You can always find the best route for your safe driving.
Best App For Aviation WX
There is not a better application for flying, you can see the big picture days in advance for that 4-5 day trip. This app is simply PERFECT.
Good info — love the wind direction feature
…but sometimes a bit difficult to navigate with the horizontal date sliders
Great app
Use it all the time
