Hi all, it is time for some conspiracy theories.

NASA GMAO forecasts high concentation of CO at Canary Islands for the following days at the same time (approx 15:00 UTC). It looks like volcano eruptions.

My guess: Yesterday the system automatically added a new source of pollution when volcano exploded and now it assumes that in the following days it will behave in similar way - emit CO. I think that this may work for some industrial sources.
What do you think? :-)

Thank you.

Yes, geopotential height is not available for Arome, via Windy. I use calculated values, which is not ideal.

Would you recommend that I leave it out, or use ECMWF?

The problem seems to come from the backend:

Weird values. It is very intermittent though. Speed does not appear to play a role, rather the number of waypoints. Probably an interpolation problem of some sort.

coverage compared:

Deutscher Wetterdienst pc_met, €79,50.-/yr, no history/download

Windy Radiosonde, free, with history+download:

Germany: 14 vs 10 stations
British Isles: 8 vs 2
Austria: 3 of 4 not present
Spain: 6 versus 3
Slovakia: 1 vs 0
Hungary: 2 vs 1
Croatia: 2 vs 1
Italy: DWD - 2 out of 4 have "technical issues"

NOAA GFS model has not been updated since yesterday 12:00 UTC due to connection problem to NOAA servers.

Update: Connection to NOAA servers has been restore and GFS model is updated again.

Thanks, should be working now.

Hello.
When I try to suscribe, the page appears in Arabic and I do not understand where I should enter the credit card information.

Is there any way to see the page in Spanish or English?

Thanks

In this case it seems that problem is that we had outdated image for the Great Britain. Stripes mean that the data was not refreshed for longer time. In that situation when other radar in composite has new data (French in this case), it is placed over the outdated image. So if it happens again, we should investigate the cause of data outage.
We were also thinking about other solution for similar situations - allow users to dislpay only one data source instead of composite. In this case you would get outdated GB radar, but without the glitch.

Hi @vicb

How would write the package.json? how about:

"old_windy_version":{"33.0.0": "path_to_other.js"},
"main": "dist/plugin.js"

So if the version < 33.0.0, use path_to_other.js, else use main.
