      Hi All, Windy.com is absolutely the best weather site online;

      However it feels like the temperature color scale on the map vs the legend is off...I mean why is 73F on the map orange and 59F is yellow? I mean 73 in the shade or on a cloudy day with any kind of breeze requires a hoodie to stay warm, should be green on map? This throws me off every time I scroll through Windy's long range temperature map and I'm like, oh boy there's some real heat coming and then when looking more closely at the actual temps posted on the screen, it's like 70F!??

      And this is in the humid midwest...73F out west in Arizona, Nevada etc is almost chilly.

      Anyhow would be great if Windy could shift the color scale so that the oranges were reserved for actual heat, green for moderate temps and blue when it's cooler out.

        You should be able to customize your own Temperature Palette via Settings menu:

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

              @vsinceac thank you so much, Windy.com is truly an amazing weather website!!!

              These temp color's look much more normal to me now, but I realize it is subjective and am glad Windy has the ability to customize this:)
