OpenWeather Weather model

OpenWeather provides accurate weather data by drawing on trusted sources such as weather stations, satellites, radar systems, and advanced models like GFS, ECMWF, and its own OWHL™️. These partnerships with the UK Met Office and other national meteorological agencies boost reliability, with updates released every 10 minutes to ensure precision. Remarkably, the OWHL™️ model reports less than 1% of temperature predictions deviating by more than 5°C. Widely recognised as a leading provider of short-term forecasts, OpenWeather acknowledges that accuracy diminishes over longer periods due to atmospheric complexity. Thus, while short-term forecasts remain highly reliable, it is prudent to view predictions beyond a week with a degree of caution.

Continuously refining its models using real-time data, OpenWeather delivers reliable forecasts worldwide, covering both remote and densely populated areas. It also offers minute-by-minute precipitation data and hyperlocal insights, establishing itself as a trusted choice for businesses across the globe.
