Weather Routing Wind direction
-
Hi, I have the same problem. I just did a weather routing (boat) and am confused about the wind direction. Obviously the map shows SE wind but the arrow shows NE for the first leg (1-2) and SE for the second leg (2-3). Could you please explain? Thank you.

If you want the wind direction in the Route planner panel to be similar to that on the map, you have to select North up in More (the 3 dots in the phone app).
Because the default setting is from Left to right, which means that wind direction reference is that of the mobile course which would be from left to right of your screen.
https://community.windy.com/topic/27091/wind-routing-bug?_=1695837664543The thread you are referring to is from the first version of Route planner in the mobile app. Now you can set the wind direction reference to North up as explained above.
