Auto-refresh forecast bar while keeping radar animation running as well
-
Love the app... we use it at work for planning snow removal for the next day in a school district.... We use the website.....The weather radar seems to update while you have it running showing "Updated 3 minutes ago" which is great... however the forecast bar on the bottom does not automatically.. .I need to refresh to get the timeline correct. We like to keep this running on a tv in our shop so we can see it throughout the day with the radar animation on.... refreshing manually gives us the new forecast timeline but then the radar animation needs to be restarted as well. A refresh plugin for Chrome would refresh but again the issue of having to click play on the animation then select my location to get the forecast bar back makes that solution a no go. Is there a setting for this? or if not, is it possible to lock my screen and have it all auto update? Thank you again

@Baxtr Hello, there is no option to auto-update /refresh on our end. But I believe there are some plugins for the browser that may help you with that.

Thank you... yes I have used a refresh plugin, however when it refreshes it doesn't restart the animation .... nor does it hold the zoom level I have. No worries, just thought I would ask.... Love the site!! -
Oh I would LOVE an auto-refresh function that just updates the forecast data without needing to reload the browser. Even if it was just a little "refresh data" button I have to press.

If you talk about forecast data updates, they are automatically done by Windy when weather models disseminate the newest files, about every 6 hours for Premium users. So you do not need a button. -
@idefix37 no , its the forecast bar along the bottom - set to hourl;y - it scrolls left and right but does not refresh. Was hoping to put this on a screen in NOC and mostly never touch. Great site though!!
