      I’m aware that Buenos Aires (Argentina) area has a weather radar at Ezeiza international airport which is working fine but windy is not showing it but it shows others inside the country and nearby area. Why is that?

      Another question: I don’t understand the difference between normal radar images and the ones who look scratched or with empty lines.

      Also I’d like to know about the speaker icon when you look the weather radar in the bottom left of the screen

      Kind regards

      Alan

        Hello @linkalan90, thank you for suggestion for radar in Ezeiza. We do show radars we have a data and access for.

        The difference between radar appearance is:

        1. Normal radar image

        2. Outage of radar data

        3. Interference of radar connection, so we show the last image taken before the cut

        If you mean the 'sound' switch' in the right bottom corner, then it is for lightning sound effect.

          Hello, in the province of Buenos Aires and Argentina there are several other radars that are open ... would it be possible that they also show the data? For example radar: Bahía Blanca, prov. from Buenos Aires (RMA10); Radar: Rio Grande, prov. from Tierra del Fuego and South Atlantic Islands (RMA9); Rada: Spore (RMA10); Rada: Anguil (AR8); etc... Other apps are showing these radars... thanks a lot ;)

                Here I update those web pages:
                https://www.smn.gob.ar/radar

                There is also a page that shows all the radars and if you go to "Config" on the Radar panel you can get some information also...

                    The interesting thing about this page is that it also shows the lightning strikes ... I know that Windy uses the information from (http://es.blitzortung.org/live_lightning_maps.php) but I don't know why this page doesn't show the information from South America. Because according to this page, the information is there.
