@Korina When will this be available via the API?
The name of my city is not written on the map. I added it to the OSM map three months ago, and it has not been added to the Wendy map yet.

Hi @Korina that's a great and welcomed edition to Windy! very happy with this. How can I set up windy to always default to UKV? I monitor the weather so much and having a high res model to hand will be very useful
-
@Danzo8 Hi, position your map over the UK, choose UKV and head over to settings -> Start-up location and layer -> Start-up layer -> and select "use last overlay". This way you can save the currently selected model and layer as default.

Seems that the radar over UK is now more accurate and we no longer see this glitch :

I don't have a UKV option on my list of models. Is it released fully or only to some users at this time? Thanks.

This is the domain of UKV, and not elsewhere.
Are you using the browser version or the mobile app?

@Korina you have one of the most outstanding platforms, when it comes to solar storms other sites use your models keep up the good work and thank you

@13baktun
Hi, could you give the links to these sites? Just for information -

UKMO is a different model with a lower resolution.

And will it be available?
In the ranking of models it is after ECMWF -
@Lior-Sudry We might add it in the future.

Hi, I use Windy for flight planning and find it is brilliant! Keep up the good work! Having the UKV model is fantastic. When will this model be available in the VFR planning mode, please?
Also, will the VFR mode ever be available on Android? Would be really helpful.
Thanks!

Thank you
-
@Korina Thanks!

@EmmanuelC Hi, so far only ECMWF is available for route planning and it is not on our todo list to add other models in the following weeks or months, but we will discuss it internally. On the contrary, adding a route planner into mobile apps IS on our todo list ;-)

Is UKV going to be available to Android widgets in the nearer future? because I see it in the app fine & case it was a bug I removed & re-added said widget.

Hi @Walker998, there is no specific time period for the implementation of new models into widgets at the moment. However, we have this update in our plans.
