I am asking this because I am flying from EKCH to EHAM and a third into a my STAR arrival, severe turbulance came out of no where. Just trying to make my flights more realistic you know!

For checking wind directions and gusts before you take off, I’d recommend using apps like Windy or websites like METAR TAF. Windy provides detailed wind forecasts and turbulence information along your flight path, which can help you anticipate any severe weather. You can also check METARs and TAFs for your departure and arrival airports to get real-time and forecasted wind conditions. This way, you can better plan your flights and avoid unexpected turbulence during your STAR arrivals. Safe flights and happy landings!

Windy is really good. Please note that it may not be exact. Windy also shows winds at altitude and clear air turbulence.
