          Why can't the colours in the widgets?
          I would love it for the many widgets on my own site!
          Can you add this please, that would be awesome!
          It looks me not difficult.
          Thank you in advance, ;)

            I changed my colours of 40 MPH or higher to help find tropical storms, and know when a High Wind Warning may need to be issued. Red is hurricane, and pink is Major Hurricane for me as well, with a major contrast so I can find them well.

                  I've customize this color scale based on wind force and hurricane scales. Red is used for tropical storm/gale force winds, as the winds are dangerous enough to produce certain damages. Light white/purple indicates hurricane force winds (Category 1), and grey is used for major hurricane (Category 3). Dark blue indicates winds for jet stream and other extremely rare winds.

                      @Damir120505 Hello, what do you mean exactly? You can customise colors for each layer.

                        There are used. If no lightning is forecast by the model, Windy cannot show colors !

                          Theese layers aren't used.

                            OK that’s clearer with a screenshot. There is no obvious reason to have these lines and colors in the Precipitation type color scale.
                            Developers should have a look at it.

                              @Damir120505 @idefix37 Hi, this does not look as screenshot from Windy.com. What browser do you use?

                                  @idefix37 Yes, but the UI is different.

                                    I don’t know why the UI is different, but you can check by yourself

                                        The colors of Precipitation type layer can be now customized. That was not the case one year ago. See the post of @Miguelito67 here above who was asking this feature.
                                        https://community.windy.com/topic/10336/customize-the-color-scales-of-windy-layers/3

                                        So it is a recent change.

                                            I adjusted the color scale so that it shows jet streams.
