## What is SwissWind?

SwissWind shows you wind, weather and webcams for Swiss lakes – for everyone who wants to be on or by the water. SwissWind was previously called Seelandwind.

What the app gives you:

• Live wind from measuring stations: strength, gusts and direction
• Many forecast models compared (ICON-CH, ECMWF, AROME, GFS and more)
• Several models free, SwissWind Pro unlocks them all
• Weather and air temperature in the forecast
• Lake webcams
• Map with measuring stations, places and official water zones – as aerial view or street map
• Report wrong details about a place directly on the map
• Storm warning as a push notification
• Wind alarm (Pro): push notification the moment your wind arrives
• Water temperature, UV index, sunrise and sunset
• Home screen widget
• Units of your choice: knots, km/h or Beaufort
• Languages: German, French, English
• Sort and hide lakes and places freely
• No sign-in required – except for Pro and the wind alarm

Among others: Lake Biel, Lake Neuchâtel, Lake Murten, Lake Geneva, Lac de Joux, Lac des Taillères, Lake Gruyère, Lake Thun, Lake Brienz, Lake Sarnen, Lake Hallwil, Lake Zug, Lake Lucerne, Lake Ägeri, Lake Zurich, Obersee, Sihlsee, Lake Walen, Lake Constance and Lake Silvaplana.

Who is it for?
For kitesurfers, windsurfers, wingfoilers and sailors waiting for the right wind – and just as much for anyone who wants to go for a swim, quickly check the water temperature or see on a webcam what the lake looks like right now.
