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.

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.

    Try Windy.com, it's got ECMWF data, among others.

    ECMWF is the best which is available globally.

    But often there are local models with are better for specific regions.
