Fronts are not shown in Windy because they are not plotted by weather models but by meteorologists.

What about warm / cold front ?
Thanks

A trough is an elongated area of relatively low pressure extending from the center of a region of low pressure.
To identify a trough, select Pressure layer and turn on Pressure isolines (isobars). Here is an example in Windy of Pressure layer with customised colors.
