I have noticed that my favorite weather app Windy on IOS is not providing accurate forecasts. Maybe I a.m. not using the correct weather models for NorCal so I am curious to hear where you get your info from and on which weather models it is based.
I have a choice between:
GFS+
ICON13
EC-ENS
ECMWF
NAM
HRRR
GFS27

Any advice is welcome.

Ok thanks.
So none of the above models you consider accurate for short term forecasts?

Meteoblue combines NOAA and NEMS and does pinpoint forecasts.  I’ve found it to be the best for wind forecasts.
