I’ve been using WF for about 6 months. Of those 6 months, we didn’t do several trips to our offshore islands because it said it would be 20+ knots. Come to find out, when it was “20+” it was really only 4kts at the weather stations on the island. Not impressed, it’s been inaccurate way more than it’s been accurate. I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’ll trust NOAA more than this app now. You want an accurate app, try Windy (the online one, not the blue one, that one is just as bad!)

This app provides actual maps of wind direction including changes that occur near the coast and throughout the state. It is always difficult to determine beach conditions, when most weather apps give a direction only. This app shows the actual direction on a map. I can tell, if there will be a sea breeze or land breeze during the day. There may be a breeze out of the south, but the nuances along the coast are different depending on the actual location. First app I check for expected wind direction.

The information is very well put together, easy to understand and be able to see the forecast via a quick glance. Don’t feel like I need a degree in meteorology to read the app like most of the other wind apps out there.

However, the forecasts are about 80% at best. Sometimes if you’re watching the weather for a certain day, the wind and temperature forecast can change dramatically from day to day. One day it might say 78 degress but within twelve hours the forecast will change and show 69 deg. Then twelve hours later it reads 77....😖🤷🏼‍♂️
