      @Mark-Mortimer Hello, it is correct since the new sounding is technically a POI overlay, so when you select it, the other overlay gets unselected.

        Great job with the new sounding! Really love it. Only on my mobile device (Android) the time bar, were you can adjust day and daytime, disappears now. This makes it quite hard to check the development over the day. I hope you can make the time bar topmost or so :)

          @fcrgb Hi, thanks for the feedback. I discussed this with our development team, and we will consider adding the timeline back into the future release.

            Bonjour,
            D'autres paramètres du radio sondage devraient être affichés.

              I like this tool very much.
              I've realized that today forecast sounding don't offer near radiosounding like before.
              And another thing that have changed is that when you are in a radiosounding, the option to see historical radiosounding have dissapeared.

                This makes keeping track of progress during the day challenging. I'm crossing my fingers that the clock will reach the summit.

                  @marekd The ability to compare or "swipe-back" to the previous observed or forecast sounding would be great. I currently don't see a way to do this in the current version, correct ?

                    Great tool! I've noticed the lowest data is always the 1000hPa level. Is it possible to show data lower down in the atmosphere please?

                      @Threlfa7 No, but there are also ground data and some models have layer 100m above ground level.

                        Seems to pop up whenever and is annoying and may interfere with the map in general

                            @Peter-Gehring What exactly do you mean? I see that you already have Premium account.

                              Bumping this, i would really appreciate this being added, or at least a way to enter the DP and temp that isn't via getting the mouse exactly in the right place.

                              It's difficult for people with movement issues to get it in the spot.

                                I've found that the cursor text indication of wind speed sometimes doesn't agree with the wind barbs along the right side axis (as in the example above - "19 mph" while the wind barb indicates 50+ kts). or are the units of the wind barbs something other than the usual knots or the units set under Settings (mph, in the case of the example above).

                                  Wind barbs units cannot be other than knots.
                                  I think your sounding is displaying wrong wind barbs.
                                  I get 19 mph for less than 20 kt windbarbs in the graphic at 750hPa level for same location.

                                  3E0835ED-34EA-4501-9003-3536E8A926DE.jpeg

                                  You can easily cross check the wind speed at this level on the map with the Altitude slider set at 800 - 700 hPa and the sounding graphic.

                                    @idefix37 I agree with all you said, including that I can cross-check the wind barbs. But why do you suppose the sounding forecast is showing me the wrong wind barbs, and why only sometimes? I will try to see under what circumstances this happens, but haven't noticed a pattern yet.

                                      Dear Windy team!
                                      Your sounding visualizations are great!

                                      In a month I am starting to teach atmospheric thermodynamics and plan to use your graphics.

                                      However, I am missing the output for water vapor mixing ratio values and isolines. Can those be visualized?

                                      Thanks!

                                        The tool is really great! Exactly what I need for a more precise forecast for gliding! One little remark: in the forecast mode I am not sure about the time considered; a remark on that would be of great help too. Other wise just perfect. Congratulation!
                                        Regards Rudolf

                                          Edit: Sounding ground elevation seems wrong. The elevation here (Hemet High School) is ~1700 ft yet the bottom of the sounding is only 700 ft. This makes is really hard to use for soaring.
