      ...... probably the wind shown (6 km/h 10 degrees)
      is the wind on surface.
      Location's elevation is 632m but sounding's data are for 949 hPa=583m.
      So, the model's wind at 583m in the free atmosphere is from east at 20kt
      but as 583m is lower than surface (elev. 632m) it shows surface wind.

        @marekd I've been using the Windy sounding more and more and it's been a great help. Two things I'd love to see that would help with precipitation forecasting:

        • An option to display the calculated wet-bulb temperature; the trace will always sit between Td and Ta.
        • An option to display the calculated Frost Point temperature. This is equivalent to dew point but based on relative humidity with respect to ice rather than liquid water. It is often between Td and Ta but can be higher than Ta in cases of supersaturation with respect to ice.

        These would be a huge help and should be able to be derived from the existing Ta and Td measurements in the sounding.

            hello, This is a suggestion,the basic data of the sounding is already there, how to process the data, the processed content can refer to the SPC sounding part of the content (see the red box part), of course, this kind of content display can be a membership.
            Hope to get a reply from Windy!

              Hi,
              congratulions for the great job!
              I wonder if with LCL, CCL it would be possible to add CAPE and CIN,.
              thank you very much

                congratulation for the great job!
                I wonder if it is possible to add , with LCL and CCL, also CAPE, CIN and some additional parameters as Lifted index, K index .
                Thank you very much

                  There is a bug with Rhode Island's Port Judith radiosonde... when you click it, the map repositions to Australia. Can this be corrected?

                    The tool itself is very nice. But it appears to show only data on pressure levels. Which kills important vertical structures, especially inversions, In order to make quantitative use of this tool, I propose to use data on model level instead.

                      New sounding with radiosonde measurements provides real-time data on atmospheric conditions such as temperature, humidity, and pressure. It helps in weather forecasting and atmospheric research by collecting vertical profiles of the atmosphere.

                        I love the soundings, but mine have changed to a black background which makes the various lines invisible. I can’t find a way to change it back to white background, is there a way?

                          Hi, How can we access the radiosonde live tracker. We've launched todays 14/05/25 0000Z radiosonde and we still getting the SKEW T diagram from the 12th. Is there something we are missing?? Please let us know.
