Weather radar & meteogram display
-
Hi guys,
I am helicopter pilot and i am used to fly in different foreign countries where it’s difficult to have some meteo informations.
I am flying in Central Asian , African and east European countries.
I am flying mainly at low level layers, it means between ground and FL120.
Meteogram:
the meteogram display lot of interesting information but they are really little to read. First of all because of the grey Colors on with background. It’s written with little figures for some of them. The scale of the diagram is reduced.
May you change colour with more contrast?
May you make adjustable the vertical scale of the metrogram in order to see better the low layers?
Sometime we can remove the upper part who is less useful for light aviation flight.
May you add also an instability indice because they can give us also the local evolution.In vernal for this point, generally light avion is flying from 1h to maximum 6 hours.
Then, may it possible to make the horizontal scale settable too for meteogram (only the part with different FL)Weather radar:
On some other application, (meteoblue, forefight) they have weather Rdl informations for countries in Central Asia (Uzbekistan, Kirgizistan, Georgia…..), in Africas countries (Tanzania, Gabon, etc….)
So why windy doesn’t display this weather radar. For light aviation, they are very helpful in term of flight safety. We can overlap forecast and radar information to interpret the IMMEDIAT future condition.
Is it possible to have these meteo radar displayed with the other that you are already displaying?I will finish by a question.
Foreflight is able to give in automatic mode, for a selected flight area, but only for very high level flight.
I guess, with all weather information, it can be possible to edit an automatic TEMSI for lower layers?
Do you think that windy will able one day to do it?
Thank you in advance
Best regards -

Meteogram: Thank you for the feedback about the readability of this feature. There are no plans to update this. However, I will check other feedback and if there is any higher demand, I will forward this to colleagues from the product team.Missing radars: Our colleagues are still working on new radars around the World, and if you know any source for certain countries, that are not in Windy, we appreciate any help with getting data for those radars.
Could you please provide any details according to TEMSI?

Good afternoon
About meteogram readability, i already see several feedback about it. When we,want to enter into detail, information are too little and sometime unreadable. :(((About weather radar i am seaching sources.
I see accuweather show,severalaccurate weather radar but i dont know their sources.About TEMSI, sorry ot s my mistake. It's significant weather. We call it TEMSI but in europe.
It give genral overview of weather forecast for 3, 6 or 9 hours. It depends.
Its great soirce of information but in somexountries, they dont genrate it.
Foreflight is giving one into our navigation area, but for very high altitude.

I guess now, they are generated automatically.Best regards
