      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.

      Have you unticked Wind in the longer menu list? This is probably the reason why you don't get Wind in main menu.

      You may try it.
      I started with the following choice of colours:
      Green: the best conditions for sailing. Enjoy wind and sea.
      Orange: conditions becoming tougher. Be careful
      Red: hard conditions for a standard 30’ - 40’ cruising boat. Better to stay sheldered.
      The result is may be not artistic but efficient.
      I like to explain the Beaufort scale also with this table from F.Singleton, with a little humour :

      I agree, it’s better to have dense/strong colours for strong winds and lighter colours for light wind or near no wind.
      But you may change the colour scale for most of layers and specially for Wind. So you may have your own colour range for wind:

      If you like my wind settings, I can give them to you.
