>Europe is widely acknowledged as having arguably the best global weather systems. The US government, uniquely, maintains two independent global weather models. Neither is as good as the European model.
Which EU weather forecast provider is best and most accurate? I want to move away from just googling the weather or the weather app on my phone.
Europe was always great in weather/earth observation from space.
Their stuff basically works 24/7/365 without causing much noise. With fully automated data intake processes.
Google partnered with European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) to build weather models. Which begs the question: why didn't it partner with NOAA on its home turf?

As with everywhere else, it is not unusual for people with little knowledge to have strong opinions. Humans doing human things.
Europe having the best weather model is not remotely controversial to anyone familiar with the subject.
Europe is widely acknowledged as having arguably the best global weather systems. This isn't new. There are only a handful of organizations world-wide maintaining global weather models.
The US government, uniquely, maintains two independent global weather models. Neither is as good as the European model. Arguments have been made for combining the US budgets to produce a best-in-class weather model but politics makes that unlikely to happen.
