    Purely selfish note to add: I enjoy flying paragliders for fun. The thought of good forecast data fading away is super sad for my hobby (and super dangerous for aircraft travel in general). Might have to start using the European weather models more often, even though they haven’t been quite as accurate for the places in the US I like to fly.

      I sail so I feel your pain :( they NOAA weather models have been irreplaceable for me. Especially for Great Lakes weather data. The weather warnings a wave data help keep people safe.
