Windy (weather service)
Windy is a Czech company providing interactive weather forecasting services worldwide.
The portal was founded by Ivo Lukačovič in November 2014, initially focusing on wind animation. It has since expanded to include various essential meteorological parameters, such as temperature, pressure, relative humidity, cloud base, and additional panels featuring more advanced data. The wind animation component is based on the open-source project earth by Cameron Beccario.
As of May 2018, it had a team of six employees, and 300,000 users visited the site per day.
