@tjfran Hello, you will need to select the overlay "Forecasted weather" in the right bottom corner on the desktop, or in the side menu in the app. You also need to have the Wind layer selected.

@Wildman93 Yes, this is a different application. We are Windy.com (with a red logo). These are our official apps: For Android - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.windyty.android&utm_source=menu&utm_medium=windy&utm_campaign=menu&utm_content=menu For iOS - https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id1161387262 Kind regards

@loud-fast Have you tried the different models available in Windy for your area? For instance HRRR and NAM. Apparently HRRR provided better wind speed prediction with 14 mph compared to a local weather station near Pinellas reporting 15 mph.

As shown by this table of Beaufort scale modified for the US, it is the quantity of white caps which enables to estimate the wind speed.

@joymaker I don’t know what precisely you call wind vectors, is it wind arrows or wind barbs? You can combine already precipitation, Rain layer, with animated wind particles which give the wind direction. It already shows frontal boundaries.

@austincwolf Hello, you can find more information about weather stations in https://community.windy.com/category/23/windy-stations.

@btrimm did you ever find a way to do this in leaflet?

@yves70 Many thanks for this. It puts a new light on everything.

@junkitt Wind is not missing in the main/quick menu on the map. And wind is the default layer as soon you open Windy. Thus there is no issue ! Same in the phone app, when you open the menu. [image: 1607172512098-capture-d-e-cran-2020-12-05-a-13.39.21.png] Have you unticked Wind in the longer menu list? This is probably the reason why you don't get Wind in main menu.

@johnckealy Hi John , you mentioned ' I also host my own complementary web app at skewt.org,' i would be grateful if can you share where this is (link)? thanks

@rekel You can use this tool from the NOAA based on GFS model: Hysplit gives you the trajectory of the air parcel reaching a location, at different altitude above this location. https://www.ready.noaa.gov/HYSPLIT.php On Windy there is a plugin which works in the other way. It gives the air trajectory from a location. It is useful for air balloon trips. Menu > Install Windy plugin> Trajectory https://community.windy.com/topic/10727/forecast-by-windy-traj-versus-track-flown-an-alps-crossing-by-hot-air-balloon-on-2019-12-29?_=1596629531187 Good game.

@ss1007 I'm happy it works for you!

@jhnelson24 Hi, this is not a bug, since on Radar layer you don't even have an option to have isobars turned on. Instead there is Lightning and sound, please see below - [image: 1582727450645-cca91ff2-8b98-46da-b806-fb2330af6d48-image.png] Isobars are not in settings, so they cannot be saved as default.
