On website, you just need to click on the clock in the low right corner.
On the phone app, see in the menu « About these data »
You find this type of information :

Thank you for your post, however the place names are not controlled by Windy.

Please see the following posts about how the map data for Windy is sourced and displayed from www.openstreetmap.org:

https://community.windy.com/topic/5564/disputed-territories-on-windy

Please also note: For every language, a different place name label can be displayed, so please choose your correct language and data display.

Further discussion of place name and language issues or disputes should be directed to the OpenStreetMap Forum here: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/index.php > scroll down & select > users: (the relevant country for your dispute and/or question)

In the case of a political dispute please leave such topics out of the Windy forum and instead focus on the discussion of weather.

Thank you :)

For each layer, you can click on the clock in the low right corner. You get the information about the data including the provider, the update interval, the resolution and the last and the next update.

The Active fires layer is not the only one that is not in « real time »

Your image has not been uploaded, because too large. You must reduce its size before uploading.

@iosman123
Don’t you think you should first specify where do you see dashed lines? Which map?

@northcave
It seems there are less ships in data of weather stations at sea shown by Windy. Most of them are buoys. But there are still some.

Today at 1200 UTC, the National Buoys Data Center reports only 35 ships sending data

For example this one at the moment near the equator in Atlantic with the DBBH call sign.

You can check its name and position via www.sailwx.info

@CassandraStorm
You can customize the color scale of any layer, including Waves.
In Settings (website version), select Customize color scale -> Waves

On my side I use this color scale
