UKUM on meteoblue

[franksingleton]

Am I slow on the uptake (probably, yes) or does everyone know the meteoblue now has the UKUM, globally, for 7 days ahead at 3-hourly intervals. They say, correctly that it is a 10km grid model. That does not mean that their product resolution is 10km. Weather Maps | Live Satellite & Weather Radar - meteoblue

Thank you. I did not know that. What is the significant difference between this and, say, GRIB files from PocketGrib or WindGuru?

Only that the Met Office has been very slow to release its data for free dissemination of its forecasts. until recently, you could only get limited amounts free but have to pay otherwise. As far as I know, this is the only source of 6 days, 3-hourly Met Office forecasts. Possibly they have relented and have followed the USA and Germany, among others. Perhaps meteoblue are paying. I do not know but thought it worth publicising.
Up to 6 days, the Met Office is on a par with ECMWF,
