      Hello
      I want to report windy station.
      https://www.windy.com/station/wmo-17058?41.246,28.219,13
      this station coordinates wrong according to the name of station "istanbul havaalani" (istanbul airport)
      Istanbul airport location is https://www.windy.com/station/ad-LTFM?41.276,28.708,12

      can you check the station? misnamed or mislocated?

        Mislocated.
        The WMO location code 17058 stands for LTFM.
        Unfortunately in many data bases location 17058 is reported with wrong coordinates.
        e.g.
        f389d455-e9aa-4982-a7e7-054074ae6ef5-εικόνα.png

        Similar problem
