      The name of Holy “Makkah” City is not correct in the map it’s showing “Mecca” ...!

      The correct name is “Makkah” as showing in the official maps and street sign’s from the authorities of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

        https://community.windy.com/topic/5564/disputed-territories-on-windy

        Please also note: For every language, a different place name label can be displayed, so please choose your correct language and data display.

        Further discussion of place name and language issues or disputes should be directed to the OpenStreetMap Forum here: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/index.php > scroll down & select > users: (the relevant country for your dispute and/or question)

        In the case of a political dispute please leave such topics out of the Windy forum and instead focus on the discussion of weather.

        Thank you for your understanding :)
