The three models
European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts
The most skilful global deterministic model by most scores, and the one the IMS reads first.

Deutscher Wetterdienst
The German global model on its icosahedral grid — with the upper air: 500 hPa, 850 hPa and the jet.

UK Met Office Global
The Unified Model at 10 km — the finest grid of the three, and an independent third opinion.

How to read this page
Switching model holds the instant, not the forecast hour. The three centres run on different cycles, so +40 h on one is rarely +40 h on another. This page keeps the valid time across every switch and says when the nearest frame it could find is off.
The colours are not comparable between models. The values are. Each centre renders on its own palette over its own range, so the legend is redrawn every time you switch. To compare, click the map: all three are probed at that point, at the same instant, in one set of units.
A field one centre does not publish stays in the menu, greyed. ICON has no visibility here, the Met Office no precipitable water, ECMWF no upper-air fields.
Nothing on this page is rendered here. The frames are Forecast Euro's, Forecast Germany's and Forecast Britain's, read through this site.
