NortheastPAWx Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Thinking about subscribing to one of these sites for the winter....who provides better quality in terms of cost, getting the model runs out, image quality, things like that?

Tom Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 in terms of models I use this site for most and I have a subscription to eurowx.com for the euro.....good price and good combination of info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I've used both in the past. Happy with wxbell now. SV is the fastest. Especially with the euro. Wxbell has the best graphics and regional zooms. Sign up for a free trial with wxbell and see what you think and test a month of SV. They are both great pay services for different reasons.

Quincy Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I've used both SV and WxBell and I would give the slight edge (preference) to WxBell. Not only are the graphics sharp with tons of windows for just about every model, but the speed is pretty solid too. (Not much behind SV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted December 26, 2015 Author Share Posted December 26, 2015 SV comes out quicker. Weatherbell has better graphics (pretty colors) Color code would be another thing I'm looking for. WxBell's can be very unclear especially in regard to their snow maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxBell's can be very unclear especially in regard to their snow maps.Their snow maps (like many others) are garbage though. Serious flaws in their algorithms in borderline events.Anyway, the maps become clear when you "zoom" in on a region. If you want a decent snow map use meteocentre. http://meteocentre.com/models/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I've used a wide variety of model sites and definitely prefer wxbell. SV comes out quicker but not a huge difference. Wxbell maps are all around better and I'm not talking about weenie snow maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
