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.

Wear OS
Get quick access to weather updates, including precipitation forecasts, temperatures, and wind conditions, right on your wrist.

Ratings and reviews

Excellent ......would never trust any other source to know, and actually see what's going on. I survived through Harvey thanks to Ventusky.I was evacuated, but still...when re- entering P.A. I cried. So many homes, and businesses ruined. Blue Moon Motel destroyed, Avery's, and many other places. Some rebuilt I'm sure. Some did not. Bragged ,and bragged about such great detail your maps show of when , and where a hurricane is making landfall. This application is extremely accurate. I love it.

XaaS continues to pillage and plunder its way through everything good. I would have happily paid a one-time fee for the premium app. However, instead I'll just continue to use online sources that uBlock Origin cleans up— for free. It's unfortunate but I will not support XaaS modeling without at least an alternative option to buy, and OWN, a perpetual license outright. Bring back the one-time purchase option to OWN the premium app with no subscription, and I'll change my tune.

This has the potential to be a great weather app. I have the premium version, but unfortunately there are still bugs that need to be worked out (e.g. the "Meteogram" goes blank when switching between temperature, precipitation, etc.) Also, I would like if the User Interface were just a little bit cleaner when it comes to displaying the data and moving between different charts. The current display feels slightly dated, but that's just me.

What's new

1) New Notifications: Alerts for waves, freezing rain, and air pressure changes.
2) Secondary Wind Animation – You now have the option to enable two wind animations simultaneously. The second animation displays the upper-level wind flow, providing a clearer view of cloud movements for example.
3) Login – The app is now integrated with myVentusky accounts, making it easy to transfer your subscriptions and access additional features.
4) Bug fixes.
