      Afternoon... while not a windy bug really... but the model does seem to be incorrectly influenced by wmo 71481which windy puts on helmken Island bc Canada.. a quick search says this station is hundreds miles away in Alberta.. the data it spits out confirms this... we did email wmo once few years ago .. if anyone cares and has influence :)

        It’s not a Windy bug, another app shows the same weather station at same place:

        This listing of WMO weather stations from NOAA/NCEP library shows this weather station in Evansburg Alberta.

        So I am not sure Windy can solve this issue.

          @idefix37 yup... as stated we made an attempt to contact wmo over this but no response... just posted here in case I got someone's attention that could fix it as it really messes with the model at times. My understanding is that these errors were fairly common a while ago. Hopefully it'll be fixed one day 😊

            This problem seems to be widespread, see this topic.
