A large number of people use meteoblue forecasts to plan their weather-depending activities, sometimes as accurately as hour-to-hour. We appreciate your contributions: Your criticism helps us to improve our products and services. Your praise helps us keep them. Here are some comments received, with thanks to the authors for the permission to use it here:
I am not one to randomly send fan mail, but I would be remiss not to acknowledge the level of accuracy meteoblue has hit this summer at Nueltin Lake in Canada's Arctic. I look at a lot of weather sites to get a good reading on what is coming and you have been very accurate. Can you give me some idea where you guys get your information? Thanks a bunch. I plan to put a link to meteoblue from my website so clients can check out the weather. I have your iPhone app on my phone and use it daily. Kindly, Shawn Gurke, Nueltin Fly-In Lodges, Ltd. 02.08.2012.

...it is at worst a very minor nag for an otherwise very good weather site (I'd say the best I know, at least for what I use it for). I use other sites as well,... (legally I am obliged to) but I depend mostly on MeteoBlue for planning and executing my balloon flights. Having a good idea of what is happening in and just above the boundary layer really helps. :-) Soft landings, Frank Schweppe, balloon pilot in France, 27.12.2012.

Wonderful site. I enjoy it as a former meteorologist of the KNMI, de Bilt, Netherlands. Very organized and clear information. Well cared maps and graphs. Awesome. Thank you. Ben Wammes, Bunnik, NL, 24.12.2012.

Really well done job guys! With this redesign you are the most usable weather
forecast around and finally usable also on mobile. myneur, 27.10.2012.
.
A truely excellent upgrade to an already great site. Much easier to read and
detail is presented in a logical format. Makes other sites look out dated and only
guessing. My thanks for an accurate and usable site. sarge 25.10.2012.

My 1st reaction to opening MeteoBlue was "Wow!" :) Brilliant new design!! Kudos guys! Also kudos for the great weather forecasts! I use this site as my 1st choice every time I plan to go out flying, and even though sometimes the micro-climate is
playing tricks on us, the forecasts have always been trustworthy, so a BIG THANK
YOU for all your great work! Best regards, Cristian from Transilvania. 25.10.2012.

Love the website! It's very accurate and easy to navigate. I also really like the new design. Whoever created it, did a great job. Thanks for your services! Andi Drajan (3D Artist & Photoshop Editor) 25.10.2012.

Dear Meteoblue, I look forward to the new (BETA) design my favorite weather site. BRAVO! Greetings from Serbia, from Trstenik!. Meteotrstenik 24.10.2012.
.
My next point on the wishlist would be an android app... I have read the motivations why there is no app at the moment. I understand them, but I also think that a service that can forecast weather so impressively only on the basis of numbers should be able to handle that ;) Of course the most important thing is the core functionality. While checking the service almost daily for a year or so I have noticed improvements for example in the prediction of low clouds and fog, now they are almost always accurate. Congratulations! Best regards, Marco, 24.10.2012.
.
Wow! Wonderful design and functionality! Thank you for the service! Best Regards! Arthur Kiseljov, 24.10.2012.

Love the new site - the old one was good but this is even easier to access all the
information. And the best bit? - accuracy!! I love the rainSPOT forecasting and
the 'feels like' temperature. The iconography on the new site is clearer and the
scroll-down feature to look at each day is excellent. Keep up the good work and thank you! Gini Wells, 18.10.2012.
.
Your site is world class! I use it always for the preparation of my climbs. Last time, I noticed that an altitude reading is incorrect. The Bristenstock (Switzerland) is 3073 meters high. Kind regards Adrian Zaugg. 11.10.2012. [Editor's Note: the altitude was promptly corrected].
.
Your forecasts are amazing: I was just in central Siberia at a field station; downloaded your weather forecast for the next day via satellite. It forecasted rain at 11pm, not 10 pm nor 12 pm. Lo and behold it rained at 11pm and not at 10pm or 12pm. This was much better than the local forecast from Roshydromet. Our Russian colleagues were extremely impressed - keep up the great work! Cheers, M. Heimann, Max-Planck-Institute, Jena, 10.10.2012.

... your PROFI help for us (CZ balloonist)... model computed for CH (3 km raster) is optimal for me (CZ is on border, but correct computed), and quality of generation ... of maps are excellent. Igor Krizak, 27.09.2012.

Many thanks. meteoblue and meteo4me are great. Phil Sinclair 27.09.2012.

Your page already had a very clear layout - now it's even better. Concise, clear, meaningful. We were recently in the Dolomites, the lodge caretakers all used meteoblue. Judith Siegrist 21.09.2012.
.
Literally speaking, had I not accidently run across your website living here in Belgium, it would be a constant battle for me determining when I can walk. I also walk in the farmers areas and thunder and lightening is very tricky but as long as I make the time window I can live with my guess from your prognosis... I use 4 different websites to determine when and where I can walk and yours is on average the best and I have it saved in my browser to start immediately. Regards, Jeff. 06.09.2012.

You are the best. Many thanks for your works. I am with you (from Řepy, Czech Republic) more than 2 years...Francis 25.08.2012.

Good day! your site has long sought information about meteorology, it contains many interesting maps, especially the area of the Black Sea, where I live. .... If you still want to further develop your site, I would like to see synoptic map of the cyclone fronts. Thank you! Алексей 20.08.2012.

You have indeed answered my question! Congratulations with meteoBlue. It is excellent and I consult it every day. R. Regeer, 23.07.2012.
.
Dear Friends, I am one of happy users of meteoblue. Thank you for really great site. I really like it, because I am blind and the "detail" view is excellent for blind people, because most data are in the table. I would like to ask you whether is it possible to add "alt" atribute to the images in detail view in the first line in the table... Thanx again for great site! Peter Lecky, 17.07.2012.
.
Your site is so far ahead of even the vaulted 'Met Office' in accuracy and ease of use. As a branch secretary for the CMA, I organise ride-outs and events and it make this so much easier to have a forecast that is reliable and accurate. Many thanks and may you continue to grow. Sarge. 11.07.2012.
.
I must also congratulate MB on having one of the most accurate forecasts for my area particularly wind speeds! Worthing has a reputation for being quite windy, especially in the summer with sea breezes which can pick up from 5 to 20 knots in less than an hour around lunchtime, but just 1 mile back inland the wind is still only around 5 knots. You guys have consistently forecast the higher winds on the coast and are the only internet weather company to get it so accurate. Keep up the good work!! Jim Turner, UK, 16.06.2012.
.
What you do is fantastic. I only want to suggest you one feature that I would find very convenient. When entering a new location, it would be great if it was possible to indicate state using ISO abbreviation, e.g. "Paris, FR" rather than selecting from a menu. Filip U., 15.05.2012.
.
You did a great job in presenting the complex weather data with smart, easy to read and understandable pictures/diagrams. The Meteogram is simply a hit for a VFR pilot! The forecast is quite accurate, at least for Salzburg. And all the information for free. Well done! C.Micu. 28.05.2012.
.
A pity that the weather reports from SF are not accurate, especially here in the Valais ... you can not plan anything! But luckily there is Meteoblue :) super ..! Here, there is a comfortable temperature for the evening hike. 22.05.2012.
.
I do not like meteoblue :-) ... At least with MS one can hope that they will be wrong: o) ... with meteoblue this is never the case! Rain at noon announced in Sauges ... it is on time, nothing to say! Nice day at all, anyway ... 19.05.2012. 12:01:33.

I just wanted to make so many compliments on the map viewing instrument which you have introduced. Also, while introducing an animation, you have maintained the view of a single map (which I think is the best), facilitating the change without the distraction of searching for the right button. E Marastoni, 20.05.2012.

Hats off to the reliability of
ALL your forecasts. They are by far the best for the Southern Alps. The presentation of the pages is brilliant and easy to read. J.Rouvinez, 01.05.2012.

Hello, have been following your website for 3 years, the new maps are OK, I liked the maps before and now too, the forecast is good and the style is just great. Also, I'm impressed with what single location forecast looks like: weekly, meteogramm, 14-days, sky, me-to-u etc. Keep it that way! Thanks!. Roman White. 08.04.2012.

Good job. Smart satelital images. Jorge. 19.03.2012.

This is Luca Aucello from Prato, near Florence in Italy. I fly with a Motorglider... I try to use a lot of sites to improve my fly for many years, but nothing is like Meteoblue. The parameters, the functionality, the smart things. I['d] really [be] lost without this site and my fly really improve in satisfaction and secure. So never stop to improve! Bye ! 15.12.2011.

Dear Sirs, I am a regular visitor and participant at your site. In the longer term I bring messages about weather conditions in my city Trstenik in Serbia. Only missing the frame (symbol) to the clear night in the description of the time. If you have a chance, I would ask your team to set up each picture with a bright moonlit night, for example to indicate the condition of clear weather during the night. I want your Meteoblue team all the best! Dragan Bokan 15.03.2011.

First-time user. Took ages to find out I could pinpoint it to my own town. Most impressed, most useful. We don't live according to the weather but it is good to be warned when it will be wet or windy etc. Particularly like the combined picture at the bottom as it shows all I want to know. Have already recommended it to other people. P.D. 07.02.2011.

Hello, first thanks for providing your great service ! I use MyMapServer for planning either single days of gliding or even longer expeditions as well as general purpose weather and it has fully met my expectations so far. I particularly appreciate the rather technical, exact approach of the informations provided. I'll rather have more of them and decide by myself which parameter is useful to me. Nevertheless, the general purpose forecast for a given place is very handy for a quick glance at what is going to happen locally. Martin H. 20.04.2009.

I've been checking your "Astronomy Seeing Prediction" for a while now to see when it's worthwhile to assemble my telescope and am amazed by its accuracy: thanks for a great and easy service for an occasional amateur astronomer like me.

I am a paraglider pilot. But my interest is specially crosscountry flying that means you fly high distances over +100km. By the way the world record is nearly 500km. This means you need very special meteorological conditions. meteoblue is very valuable web site for us. Because we can take a lot of data with time series and long term forecasts. Best regards, Gokhan Caglayan, Istanbul/Turkiye. 13.08.2008.

"meteoblue is a very pleasant but precise and useful tool. The beta version improoved the informations and the rains spots are very accurate.

"We used meteoblue for our wedding day last year! In between two days of rain you were the only website that made the right prediction which made the difference in making wedding pictures outdoor or indoor. " H. Scholten, 25.06.2008.
"I am using meteoblue mainly as a mountain climber and that the way we plan our climbings completely changed since we have access to meteoblue. This not only for day excursions in Alps but also when we go during the bad season for 2-3 days in the south of France. Recently we had choice to take Friday-Sunday period or Saturday-Monday at Dentelles de Montmirail and after the careful check with MyMapServer we opted for Friday-Sunday. We were impressed as we saw the last day - Sunday - afternoon the bad weather coming exactly as predicted just before we left." A. Blecha, physicist. 09.06.2008.
"I contact meteoblue regularly since more than 2 years. My leisure time is spent in motor flight (owner and user of privat pilot license) and sea sailing (mainly Mediterranean). Thereby I have already received much valuable weather informations through meteoblue and adapted my plans accordingly." K.Spohn, 20.04.2008.

"Just thought I'd let you guys know how much your site deserve great praise and thanks. Great design, I'm often using it to optimize my choice of alpine summits and beach volleyball schedules as well as simple curiosity because it shows you so much more than your average weather website. Once last year I was responsible for 25 kids and I had to make a tough choice on where to go and climb. Tough choice as the rain was near and you can't climb on wet rock. I managed to find a wi-fi connection somewhere, access your site and decide basis the detailed forecasts. It turned out that it rained where we had originally planned to climb but my alternative spot was dry and even sunny, so you helped to save the day!" Alain.
"Just a few words to tell how much I appreciate the service you're providing, in one word what you're doing is "ffff..fantastic" ;-)) ! Love the new "observed temperature" feature. Couldn't live without meteoblue.com... I always first look at meteoblue where the info is often more accurate, and always easier to read, than what's provided by our "national weather agency" who's supposed to bring a neat and accurate local forecast to 'the rest of us'... All the best." Tycho 3.1.2008.
"I found your site unique and perfect capable to fit also astronomical requirements. Fantastic is the new feature (under experiment) giving details of seeing in arc seconds!!! Again compliments and thanks from a stargazer under the skies of the North of Italy." Fausto Mella, Italy.
"I am a paraglider and am using your site since several months now. I just wanted to let you know that the meteo forecasts you provide are great and excellent for people who fly from time to time. Thank you so much because by using your information I can plan my week-ends and avoid driving to paragliding sites if the forecasted weather conditions don't meet the correct flying conditions." Philippe Danks.
Jörg Schirmer uses meteoblue to plan his astronomy observations. "Forecast accuracy for Willisau has been around 93% when taking into account stations Napf and Egolzwil. Reasons [for forecasts not to be considered accurate] were mostly timing errors of 2 - 3 hours. I seem to remember that only on two occasions [meteoblue forecasts] have been completely off."
"Anyway I really would like to say the presentation of your data through meteoblue is very good and easily readable. Maybe for a number of the maps you could provide a guide to the different shading. i.e cloud cover and density and levels. Please keep up the good work and I look forward to you resuming your regular South America maps shortly. Yours sincerly Mark Rawsthorne (from Chile), 18.09.2007.
"Congratulations for your wonderful numerical weather prediction website. I am using it extensively, among others for planning sailing trips on the North Sea and other outdoors activities." Phillipe Tardy.
"As a balloon pilot I appreciate your service very much. Easy handling, very customer friendly. Also very helpful for regions with few weather stations (e.g. part of Europe), by far the best way to make a sound go or no-go judgment. Highly recommendable." Peter Blaser
