While the normal weather forecast sites can give us the temperatures measured and those expected and are good for knowing if it is raining or sunny tomorrow, they tell us little about the direction and intensity of the winds and it is also difficult to understand precisely whether the sea is rough and, in the case of rain, whether the rainfall is significant or not.
For this reason it is worth to bookmark what is surely one of the best meteorological sites, which works very well not only to see the weather forecast, but above all to check, in an incredibly accurate and simple way, the direction and the wind intensity in every part of the world, sea conditions, the level of rainfall, the height of the snow and many other information that are difficult to discover in a single site.

The Ventusky.com website then shows the world map with all this information, in real time. From the menu below you can select which type of information to display: the speed of the winds, the gusts of wind, the waves, the snowpack, humidity, pressure, zero temperature, precipitation, temperatures and perceived temperatures. On the map, things like winds and waves are displayed through animations that show their direction and intensity.
After choosing one of the information you want to view on the map, you can zoom in on an area of the world to get the precise detail of the weather report. By clicking on any point it is possible to see, according to the information selected, the precise data and therefore, for example, the wind speed in that area, the height of the snow in centimeters, the height of the waves, the percentage of cloudiness, millimeters of rain and so on.
At the bottom you can use a time cursor to see the trend of winds, waves or temperatures over a day. Always at the bottom you can change the date and see the forecast for the next few days.
At the top right you can change some settings such as the graphics of the animations and the map. At the bottom left you can instead change the model used, going from a global to a regional one that can be more precise.
Ventusky is also available as an app for Android and iPhone .
Alternatively, another site similar to Ventusky and with a very similar setting (real-time map with animations) is Windly, which is also useful for controlling the intensity of winds, waves and rain. This is also a very good meteorological site, with accurate weather forecasts. In Windly it is possible to select multiple layers of the map to display more information together and not one at a time as in Ventusky. On the right side you can choose which information to display, adding many more details if you press the " multiple layers " button.
