It is great, thanks very much.
Please keep the display simple and clean.. and resist the temptation to clutter up the screen with more small features.

Thanks again

As for the different forecast models, it would be awesome if they can be displayed all under each other! At least for wind strength & direction
Yes that's a great idea! i will certainly try something like it. Thanks!

Just have to say that I rarely (if ever) use any of the other wind forecasts sites anymore. I love the format. Great job!

New feature 2020 on igetwind:

I've added a summary with colors to let you see ALL the wind coming. Also for those of you using iphone the scroll is now functionning properly, sorry for the old one it as bad but now it's GOOD :)

Have a great season!

Never ending project. Now I have worked to make it much faster to load multiple forecasts ( up to 8 ).

I hope everyone can now enjoy their favorite sport without getting arrested!

Hi Lafigreg,
many thanks for your great work!
I love your homepage and app.
They are extremely convenient and will replace all other forecast apps for me.
Cheers
