    Hi, I’m trying to activate the Storms and Heavy Rain alerts, but the switches are still greyed out after I changed the Location permission to Always, and enabled notification. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and I also rebooted my phone, but the issue still persists. Thanks for looking into it. Version 48.1.2 iOS 26.2.1 [image: 1770458511810-img_2370.png]

    @Pirzada-Malik Hello, we unfortunately don't have access to the radar data. In case you know about any source, please let us know and we will try implement these data for you in the app. Have a nice day, Niki

    الموضوع: ملاحظات بشأن عناصر واجهة المستخدم وأخطاء مقياس الألوان عزيزي فريق دعم Windy، أنا مستخدم منتظم ل Windy، ولدي بعض التعليقات بشأن الواجهة المرئية ومقاييس الألوان المخصصة على تطبيق الهاتف المحمول: 1. مؤشرات الدقة: أود أن أطلب خيارا لإخفاء أو إزالة ملصقات الدقة (على سبيل المثال، 9 كم، 13 كم، 22 كم) التي تظهر بجوار نماذج التنبؤ (ECMWF، GFS، ICON). في بعض الأحيان يفسدون القائمة. 2. تباين مقياس الألوان: أواجه صعوبة في وضوح طبقات "العواصف الرعدية" و"درجة الحرارة". التدرجات الافتراضية ليست حادة بما فيه الكفاية مقابل خريطة الخلفية الرمادية. 3. خلل فني: في بعض الأحيان، عند استيراد رموز الألوان المخصصة، لا يعرض التطبيق الألوان بدقة أو يظهر خطأ في بناء الجملة حتى عندما يكون تنسيق التعليمات البرمجية صحيحا. يرجى إخباري إذا كانت هناك طريقة لتخصيص هذه العناصر أو إذا كان التحديث المستقبلي سيعالج مخاوف واجهة المستخدم هذه من أجل رؤية أفضل. مع أطيب التحيات،[image: 1772053575048-img_7382.jpeg] )

    Is it possible to set up the meteogram, as the default setting rather than having it open in basic view and then to manually adjust it? If this is not possible now, could it added to a request list?

    @Atalantia You are on satellite layer. As satellites look at the Earth from above, this is the cloud tops temperature.

    @Korina said in A difference between reference time and update time: A difference between reference time and update time Frequently Asked Questions ARTICLE 13 26 12.9k Reply Korina 21 Feb 2020, 18:28 Each model has a different update time and it could be confusing what connection does it have with the update time. Here is the explanation: Reference time - is the time when a model starts a new forecast block. It consists of: Initialisation - data are entered into the model, this creates Initial conditions (initialisation time) and then model starts calculating conditions. Assimilation - normalisation on data and assembling data for computation. Computation - calculating the future atmospheric rates of change in time increments. Data extraction - extracting data into regular forecast intervals. Data storage - data are stored and written in accessible format. Data postprocessing - special postprocessing routines For example model ECMWF has an update interval 12 hours (or 6 hours interval for Premium users), that means the first reference time will be 00:00:00Z (Zulu time) and second one 12:00:00Z. Update time is time between the reference time and the actual update. The whole process of data computation takes approximately from 8 to 9 hours. So for ECMWF model the update times are 07:15:00Z and 19:15:00Z. See the exact update times here - When and how often are the weather data updated?. Where to find info about reference and update time: Thanks for the clarification! The distinction between reference time and update time makes a lot more sense now. It’s interesting to see how much processing goes into generating accurate forecasts.

    @idefix37 Thanks a lot for looking into it ! I tried something different : importing my gpx file in the Flight planner plugin !!! and it kinda works : I do have to set an average speed which is not ideal but apart from that, the weather map changes with the position along the route. In the gpx file I'd like to display, for each point I have a timestamp and a position (lat/long). There is no speed in the file. But you are right that if you were to calculate the speed, it would be highly variable, anywhere btw 0 and 30kts.
