                  We're tracking a webserver issue with a certain german corporate environment - obviously their firewall mangles headers leading to a 404 on some data files

                  service will be shaky for an hour or two until the issue is nailed

                    back to normal

                    certain corporate firewalls like to strip any accept-encoding headers, killing the advantage of precompressed assets like brotli or gzip.

                    working on a fix

                        Hello to all. This plugin is very useful for my work. I am the head of the air defense against hail and I need data for daily predictions .
                        The development of the program is an important acquisition for all of us who are engaged in activities that depend on good weather forecasts, and Windy is, in my opinion, a more complex meteo site that is accessible to the public. Thanks again to the groups that build and develop the products.
                        It would be great for my activity if we could integrate https://www.flightradar24.com/ as a layer in the program.

                        With regards Darko Kralj

                          Best plugin to display radiosoundings.
                          I use it in my job as a flight weather forecaster as well as for my hobby as a balloon pilot.

                              @rittels Thanks to you and the whole contributors, it's very usefull and easy tu use!!! and YES we enjoy it!
                              Just an issue: when I use AROME, in an available area of course, because there are not any altitude data, your plugin will use ECMWF without any mention on that. Despite AROME or ARPEGE are very accurate we missed until now this data...

                                Thank you.

                                Yes, geopotential height is not available for Arome, via Windy. I use calculated values, which is not ideal.

                                Would you recommend that I leave it out, or use ECMWF?

                                  Hello, I'm not sure if this belongs in the Bug reporting topic or on here but ever since about a week or so ago, both the forecast and observed soundings look very compressed vertically compared to what they used to look like, no matter what web browser I use. Has this been intentionally changed recently?

                                  I've attached a couple of before and after screenshots to illustrate my point:

                                    The reason why altitude parameters are not shown with AROME is because Windy use the 1.3km version of this model. The 2.5km version includes altitude parameters. But difficult to imagine Windy showing both.

                                      Thank you. I fixed the flat skewt a few days ago, but another bug crept into extra settings. Will fix later.

                                        Thanks, I have removed altitude values from AROME, more honest than using calculated values.

                                          @rittels I think that's better to leave it out, sorry for that.... What about downloding ARPEGE data wich are free on data.gouv.fr?

                                            @rittels @idefix37 here is probably the answer, using only AROME 2.5 and showing AROME 1.3km only for the surface wind field.
