rain radar for Israel is no longer available
-
Since about 2 weeks ago, rain radar covering Israel stopped showing.

Hi @omerwo yes, you are right. Unfortunately, our data source has a long-term outage, so we don't have any data to display now. We are sorry about that, and thank you for your patience.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera Israel rain radar is back on-line since a couple of days ago, and we're having some amazing storms here. What does it take to bring it back to your global array ?
-
@Daniel-Arnolf Unfortunately, we probably use different source for data, can you share yours with us?
-
@Ondřej-Šutera So here is the page from the Israeli Meteorological Center, I'm looking into the website API to find the endpoint to the set of PNGs, which I guess is what's provided.
-
@Daniel-Arnolf so the the endpoint to each png is:```
https://ims.gov.il/sites/default/files/ims_data/map_images/IMSRadar4GIS/IMSRadar4GIS_202302011200_0.pngThe output refreshes every 5 minutes with the request has the timestamp on its query string -
@Daniel-Arnolf Our colleagues came up with the new and more reliable source. You can already see the result in Windy. Thank you for being so patient with this.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera Of course I noticed, and as usual, when things work as expected we forget to give appreciation, as such, Thank you very much indeed, Windy.com is doing a truly amazing job !!!
