micro.windguru.cz, the ultra lite version of Windguru.

The "micro" site was mainly made for offshore sailors who can only access internet using very bandwidth limited satellite or radio connections. Forecasts here are as small as possible, text only. You can view forecasts for any spot registered on Windguru or for any latitude / longitude you choose (PRO users only).

NOAA/NCEP made a major GFS model upgrade. GFS forecasts now cover all globe with 27 km horizontal resolution. We also extended the forecast horizont to 10 days.

This is a big upgrade that affect not only windguru, but all the sites that rely on GFS (most of weather sites on the internet ;-), if you were used to make decisions based on GFS you should reconsider the way how you interpret the forecasts for your spot now, it may take a while to get used to the new forecasts.

Hope this is a good step for better forecasts all around the world!

Prices for Windguru PRO are now in EUR, you can also choose to pay in USD or CZK (price will recalculate according to latest official exchange rate). The shortest subscription is now 1 month.

10.9.2013

By the end of July NOAA changed the output of their NWW3 models, since then many people complained about exaggerated wave forecasts of the coarse (1.25 x 1.0 degree resolution) data which we had inside GFS forecast. To eliminate this problem NWW3 50 km is now the default that displays inside GFS forecasts, this dataset seems to be more accurate. (Registered users can configure their preferences in settings.)

Quick spot select. Now we have a more comfortable spot selection tool. This little input field in the main spot menu and other places throughout the website is made to pick a spot as fast as possible. Bye bye long and complicated menus...

quickspot favourites
quick spot search box, it will immediately suggest 3 groups of spots that you would select most probably (if you have some of them):

1. Last 5 used spots (sorted by last use, yellow)

2. Your favourite spots (icon with a star)

3. Your custom spots (green)

You can use [up] and [down] arrow keys to select spot and confirm with [enter] key, or pick s spot by mouse. First item is always pre-selected - just hit [enter] to confirm.

As you start typing the spots get filtered to shorten the list.

quickspot suggest

Once you enter 3 or more characters it will search all the spots available on windguru and update the list accordingly.

Different kind of spots are marked by different colors and little windguru icons for easier navigation. If found, spots are sorted by importance and then alphabetically. Your favourite and custom spots come first, followed by "official" windguru spots (blue icons) and then custom spots entered by other users (grey icons).

We keep the older spot menu and favorite menus of course, but this new quick spot tool is now the default.

Hope you like it! :)

NWW3 50 km resolution wave model forecasts Especially surfers might be interested in this new addon... As you might already know the wave forecasts on windguru are powered by NWW3 model from NOAA and we only used their data with 1 latitude x 1.25 longitude degree resolution. Maybe you still remember... long time ago we tried to switch to the higher (0.5 x 0.5 degree) resolution model from NOAA, but after several complaints about aaccuracy of the new forecasts we reverted back. But... advantage of the higher resolution NWW3 model is that it not only offers the basic parameters (wave height, direction and period) but also distinguish different components: primary swell, secondary swell and wind waves. The coarse resolution NWW3 data do not have this.

Now we have both. By default we show the new 50 km NWW3 model as a separate table under the GFS forecast and the GFS forecast still includes the older NWW3 100 km resolution data, same as before. If you have other preference simply go to settings -> preferences where you can configure how to display waves (registered users only). You can choose which data to include inside GFS forecasts and which wave models to display as separate tables.

If you have some custom spots and want to have wave forecasts for them, you should now visit the settings section to check their wave forecast configuration.

Custom colors in forecasts. The default colors in the forecasts were selected very carefully and we believe this is the best for average windsurfer or kiter. In case you have other preference, you now have an option, feel free to edit colors anyhow according to your personal taste. See settings -> colors. (Sadece kayıtlı kullanıcılar)

Official Windguru app for Android. It's quite simple and very simliar to our mobile site at touch.windguru.cz. The main purpose of this app is to get easily to your windguru forecast on your phone or tablet. It does not have many features (at least yet) but should do what we need the most: to view the forecast in the format we are all used to :-)

Temel özellikler:

WG android 1 WG android 2 WG android 3

The plan is to release official apps for all major platforms and all these apps should look and work same or at least very similiar.

Please note that some Windguru apps already exist for several platforms (Android, iPhone, Windows Mobile, Windows Phone) - see the Help section. These apps are made by external partners and still are and will be supported by Windguru as alternatives.

Wind and temperature profile plots. Now you can see what wind and temperature is forecasted in different altitudes. Mouse over the "2D" tab on the forecast to select the profile. Same as the graphs introduced recently, the plots are drawn by the browser, SVG graphics support is required (all browsers except Internet Explorer 8 or below).

Tahminin grafik versiyonu. Artık tahminleri grafik olarak da görebilirsiniz, herhangi bir tahmin tablosunda grafik simgeli sekmeye tıklamanız yeterlidir.

WG forecast graph

Bu sitenin başlangıcından bu yana, Windguru'nun özü, çok sayıda sayı içeren renkli bir tablo olarak gösterilen hava tahminiydi. Gelecekte de böyle kalacağını düşünüyorum çünkü biraz eski moda olduğu düşünülse de, tablo küçük bir alanda çok fazla bilgiyi yüksek ayrıntıyla gösteriyor ve hala net ve düzenli görünüyor. Ama neden alternatif görüntüleme seçeneği sunmayalım? Tahmin grafiği başka bir görünüm, daha fazla göz zevki sunar :-) ve bazı insanlar bunu tercih edecektir.

Varsayılan olarak grafik görünümünü kullanmak isterseniz, ana sayfadaki "seçenekler sekmesini" kullanarak bunu ayarlayabilirsiniz.

Önemli uyarı: Grafiksel tahmini görüntülemek için tarayıcınız SVG grafiklerini desteklemelidir. Tüm iyi tarayıcılar (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, IE 9) uygundur, ancak Internet Explorer 8 veya daha eski bir tarayıcınız varsa çalışmayacaktır, lütfen bu durumda daha iyi bir tarayıcıya geçin.

Olumlu olan şey, tüm grafiklerin ek veri indirme gerektiren düz görüntüler olmaması, bunun yerine tarayıcınız tarafından çizilmesidir, bu nedenle daha yavaş bağlantıları olanlar için de bant genişliği dostudur.

Grafik örneği

Aşağıda gördüğünüz grafiksel tahminin ilk versiyonudur (muhtemelen nihai değildir, zaman içinde ince ayar yapmayı umuyoruz).

Grafiğin iki ana bölümü vardır, üst kısım en önemli = rüzgar'a ayrılmıştır, ne kadar rüzgar tahmin edildiğine bağlı olarak ölçeklenir, eğer güçlü rüzgar tahmin edilirse daha büyüktür, fazla rüzgar yoksa küçülür.

Alt kısım sıcaklık, bulutlar, yağış, basınç ve nem gibi "daha az önemli" parametreleri gösterir - hepsi yerden tasarruf etmek için tek bir bölüme çizilmiştir.Bulut örtüsü ekranı biraz özeldir, bu nedenle biraz daha açıklama gerektirir: alçak bulutlar grafiğin altından çizilen koyu gri alandır, yüksek bulutlar bu grafik bölümünün üstünden çizilen açık gridir ve orta bulutlar (orta gri) hem yukarı hem de aşağı doğru merkezden çizilir. Bunlardan herhangi birinin tüm alanı doldurması, söz konusu bulut katmanı için %100 bulut örtüsü anlamına gelir. Tüm bulut katmanları yarı şeffaf olduğundan, tüm katmanlarda çok fazla bulut varsa, tüm bulut grafiği neredeyse siyaha döner ve çok fazla bulut olduğunu gösterir, ne kadar koyu olursa o kadar çok bulut tahmin edilir ve yine de her katmanın ne kadar katıldığını görebilirsiniz.

Şu anda rüzgar hızı ve sıcaklık birimleri klasik tablo tahmininden alınmaktadır, bunları geçici olarak değiştirmek isterseniz, normal tahmine geri dönün, birimleri tercih ettiğiniz şekilde değiştirin ve ardından grafik sekmesini tekrar açın, seçilen birimlerle yeniden çizilecektir.

WG forecast graph example

Future plans are to use the graphical display for visualizing temperature profile and wind in higher levels. We also plan to allow users to customize graph appearance because not only wind addicted people watch Windguru and they probably have other preferences.

If you have an opinion or idea about the new graphs feel free to send some feedback. Thanks!

Wind / wave direction now displayed with higher precision. This is a tiny update which you will hardly notice but can be useful... Till now windguru only displayed 16 different arrows for direction (22.5 degree precision), now it can display it exactly without this limit. Your browser must support SVG graphics to see the difference (all better browsers do support it - Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari... if you use Internet Explorer then you need the current version 9, older IE versions will not work)

HRW 4 km resolution model forecasts for United States! These high-resolution model forecasts come from NOAA/NWS (US weather service) and they are powered by WRF model similiar to HRW forecasts for Hawaii. NOAA names this as HRW (High Resolution Window) so we will use the same label. They are running 2 different domains, one covers east-central part of US and updates twice per day (we will label this as HRWe), and the other west-central part of US and updates once per day (HRWw). Both provide forecast for 48 hours with 1 hour step. It is free for all users

After several complaints about the upgrade to wave forecasts on 27th march we are reverting back to the previous lower resolution NWW3 dataset. Later we can add the higher resolution data again but only as optional for users who want to test it.

27.3.2010

The wave forecasts are now powered by NWW3 dataset with 50 km resolution. Untill now we used lower resolution data (1 x 1.25 degree) which correspond to something over 100 km. This upgrade should make the wave forecasts a little better. If you have some custom spots with wave forecast enabled, please check them in your settings, especially if you entered alternative coordinates for waves.

Now you can select spots from a google map. This new feature should help you especially when you are searching for a forecast in a specific area but you do not know what you should be looking for in the long spot menu. You can display the map by clicking the "show map" checkbox near the spot menu (see the picture below). Haritada her zaman "yer seçimi" menüsünde gördüğünüz yerler yükleyecektir.

Örneğin: İtalya'yı seçin, yer menüsü İtalya'daki tüm yerlerle dolacak ve bunlar aynı zamanda haritada da yüklenecek ve gösterilecektir. Avrupa'daki tüm yerleri görmek isterseniz ülke menüsünden HEPSİ seçiniz. Tüm kıtalardaki tüm ülkelerin tüm yerlerini de yükletebilirsiniz, fakat bu, çok fazla yer yükleneceğinden, çok yavaş olacaktır. I would suggest to use the map with recommended browsers. Internet Explorer is NOT recommended because it is very slow compared to others.

If there are more spots too close to each other they are grouped in the map, click the group icon to zoom in and show more detail.
