01BayouRadar Models
Compare GFS, ECMWF, HRRR & NAM Side by Side
BayouRadar Models (models.bayouradar.com) is our dedicated model-comparison platform — built to put GFS, ECMWF, HRRR, and NAM guidance side by side so you can see where the models agree, where they diverge, and which one's been trending right.
- GFS, ECMWF, HRRR & NAM in one interactive map
- Side-by-side model comparison, not just one at a time
- A dedicated platform, purpose-built for model data
02In the Radar App
HRRR Futurecast — Right on the Live Radar Map
For a quick look without leaving the radar, BayouRadar's Futurecast mode overlays HRRR model guidance directly on the same map you use for live radar — a READY/WARMING indicator shows exactly when the latest run has finished loading.
- HRRR-based Futurecast model guidance
- Same map as live radar — no tool-switching
- Clear READY/WARMING status for the current run
03Forecast Overlays
Precipitation, Temperature, Wind & Cloud Cover Layers
Layer in forecast precipitation, temperature, wind speed, and cloud cover directly on the radar map for a fast read on where conditions are headed, alongside GFS-driven animated 10-meter wind particles for a live look at the flow.
- Forecast precipitation, temperature, wind speed & cloud cover overlays
- Animated GFS 10m wind particle layer
- All toggleable independently from radar
FAQ
Weather Models — Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between BayouRadar Models and Futurecast?
BayouRadar Models (models.bayouradar.com) is a dedicated platform for comparing GFS, ECMWF, HRRR, and NAM side by side. Futurecast is a quick-look mode inside the main radar app that overlays HRRR guidance right on the same map you use for live radar, so you don't have to switch tools.
Which forecast models can I compare?
GFS, ECMWF, HRRR, and NAM, all in one interactive map, so you can see where they agree, where they diverge, and which has been trending right.
Are the forecast overlays free?
Yes. Forecast precipitation, temperature, wind speed, cloud cover overlays, and the animated GFS 10-meter wind particle layer are all available in the radar app.
