the weather channel’s app shows an arrow in the direction the wind is blowing in their hourly forecast. This has been by far the most valuable weather feature for me. The direction and wind speed are generally accurate enough with the hourly forecast going out 48hrs. The daily forecast is hit or miss so I use it mostly for temperature expectations then plan routes according to the wind within 48hrs of a ride. The app’s loading speed and ‘future radar’ are trash though.
Yesterday I planned myself a route to meet my wife and kids at my sons soccer game. Most of it was with the wind at my back. I’ve never done so many miles at around 30mph and only 250w 😂
