UKV model wind figures incorrect
-
The UKV model shown in Windy is the UK Met Office model. The UK Met Office model produces wind forecast data in mph looking at their website. The knots numbers in Windy are inconsistent with the UK met Office website mph figures (UKV wind always much higher in Windy). I think Windy gets the conversion from mph to knots the wrong way round. Windy should be dividing the raw UKV mph wind data by 1.15 to go from mph to knots. However, it instead seems to be multiplying the Met Office numbers by 1.15. In effect the UKV numbers in Windy end up being 30% too high. Please can you investigate.

In Settings just set the wind speed in the units you want. You can display UKV wind speed in mph.
