      I would like to see the option to change the longitude/latitude display from degrees to UTM coordinates. Search and Rescue prefer UTM and I use UTM coordinates on my GPS navigation gear and actual topo maps I carry. This would be more useful than displaying degrees lon/lat as the form of deg location can vary according to where you put the .decimal, which is why SARs prefers UTM. Plus for hiking (snowshoeing) and navigation, the 1 km grid is more useful.

        Hi @Juan-Carlos-Oroz, you can insert coordinates into the search input in of the following formats:

        Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS): 31°24'12.2"N 12°10'26.5"E
        Degrees and decimal minutes (DMM): 31 24.20, 12 10.44
        Decimal degrees (DD): 31.403, 12.174

        However, you are right, that the format in forecast detail cannot be changed now.
