      On Windyty 5.0, using Firefox:
      When I use the Arrow keys to move the time line, the pull-out on the right edge (the one that normally contains forecast information about a location) starts coming out. The rainbow parameter legend (e.g. wind speed or pressure) also moves to the left.

      This doesn't happen with Chrome.

      Windty 5.0 is SUPER fast. Great job.

            Ivo, the 5.0 is really a lot faster! Good job!

            On the previous version the "timeline"would stop when all data is not completely loaded and continue after complete load. This was very handy on slow internet connections. I live in the middle of nowhere (10 to 100 kbps) and work offshore (sometimes only 0.5kpbs).

            Although 5.0 loads faster and more efficient i do find i miss some frames when playing trough the wind or rain forecasts.

                Dear All, a short post to confirm at 100% EricJ 's bug report, using Firefox.Report_2015_10_06.JPG Here attached a screen capture. Nevertheless, a big "bravo!" to Windyty.

                  So far so good.
                  Would be nice to see isobar lines for pressures.

                        I run a paragliding tour operation cloud9paragliding.com and windyty is an invaluable tool in helping me decide which site to fly and to plan my trips. It is the best sit on the web. Congrats!
                        I´m not stoked with the new version. I hope i can still access this version, it has much more graphic depth detail and richness, I love your present version ! mobile version lacks the progression in days. Thanks for your amazing tool, I use it on a daily basis !

                            I'm a sailor age 70 and plan to be active for a long time, what keeps me interested is efforts like this Site Windyty. the V 5 is better able to show closeup my area topography from GE.
                            What I would like once this version is finalized is a way to activate windyty from a say a Windyty login logo and not have to first access through a porthole like fire fox or google

                              @ivo I get the right hand pane opening up and covering about 80% of my screen when I try to select a different overlay on my iPad Air 2 in Safari.

                                  Hi, I really appreciate that finally Chrome / OS X isn't using super crazy amount of energy. Before my CPU went up to 80 C degrees in Chrome and I had to use Safari only for Windyty.

                                  Now, it's better, down from 135 to about 63 in Activity Monitor / Energy. It can still be better, but at least it's watchable on Chrome now.

                                  All my feature request is that if you are using OS X, can you keep an eye on Activity Monitor / Energy tab and see if you can keep lowering that number?

                                  As a reference, a static Leaflet map uses around 3.

                                    Really love Windyty and use it every day for paragliding!
                                    In version 5.0 I only change altitude when in "wind" viewing mode not "clouds, rain" viewing mode.

                                      Also it's now not so easy to find the NEMS model after you have bookmarked the page - you have to zoom (in or out) and then the option come up.
                                      Sorry, but I much prefer the old version!

                                          I just came across this and love it.

                                          Would it be difficult to add something where we could enter two points (airport identifiers or city names or xxx) and then it would overlay a great circle line on the map?

                                          And what about average wind over the course of that line?

                                          Or time to travel at xxx speed with the given winds?

                                          I am trying to plan a flight around the world and the winds aloft are a big deal on the longer legs. Pago Pago to Hilo, Hawaii and then from Hilo to Santa Barbara.

                                          My ideal scenario would be to enter NSTU (pago pago) and PHTO (hilo, HI) and then a given airspeed over that route (175 knots true) at 16,000. And then get data about the winds along that routing.

                                          Thanks,

                                          Zeke

                                            hi there!

                                            I love it, super stoked with windyty! just couple comets
                                            after you zoom your location:
                                            lines or arrows that showing wind direction can be in same color from menu on the right that you have chosen, than arrows should be wind strength color or temperature high color or clouds or pressure color...
                                            location details fonts can be with black stroke because in white background is difficult to see
                                            can be also backward play button...

                                            windyty (Small).png

                                            thank for attention!
