      Hi, I have same problem, station not showing up on map.
      I have 9 stations already sending data to windy.
      I added 2 stations last weekend, one showed up within 24 hours, while the other still not showing.
      There is no error sending the data and same system for all the stations.
      The station not showing on map is ID: 8f056cc64
      Direct link to the station shows it has the data for many days now, still not showing.
      https://www.windy.com/station/pws-8f056cc64?64.700,-20.883,8,i:pressure
      What could be the issue ?

        It seems incorrectly registered (empty) WMO station rather than PWS in the location of my station.
        The WMO shows no data but shows on map while the actual station is PWS and shows data but not on map.
        The error WMO station https://www.windy.com/station/wmo-04150?2023111200,64.682,-20.947,12,i:pressure
        and the real PWS station https://www.windy.com/station/pws-af056cc64?64.700,-20.883,8,i:pressure
        So it seems windy has created by error a wmo station where my pws station is.
        I created new pws and send the data there few days ago, wonder if this has been fixed ?
        The WMO station needs to be deleted as it is not there at all, and possibly blocking the real station.

        Maybe some expert can look at the issue at hand @Korina ?

            @Ondřej-Šutera Please look into it, should I post this somewhere else or is there some direct support contact place?
            The station wmo-04150 does not exists at this place and seems to have been created by some error when I created my station at this place.
            And my station pws-af056cc64 does not show up on the map at this place with data for almost a week now (its webcam works fine).
            Thanks in advance.

              @agteigarnet Hi, I have an update for you. We are working on an update of these stations and it will be possible to filter out only certain ones in the future. At this moment, there is an issue that our system prioritize WMO stations so if there are more WMO and PWS stations in the same location, PWS is not displayed in the map.

                @Ondřej-Šutera That is what I assumed.
                BUT THERE IS NO WMO station at this location ! it is an error !
                Please remove the GHOST WMO station at this location.

                  The Iceland weather office register shows the data for wmo-4150
                  Somehow it has moved to my station coordinates and altitude, by error.
                  Please update the wmo-04150 to have correct coordinates and altitude.
                  Direct link to the wmo-4150 at the Iceland weather office:

                    @Ondřej-Šutera The filtering seems very strong in favor of wmo station. this wmo-4150 seems only to have data once a day. when data gets old the station does not show on map, but the pws is not shown either even it has current data all the time.

                      If there are multiple reports from users experiencing similar issues with new stations not showing on the Windy map, it could be a common concern or a limitation in the current implementation.

                        @Alex-Cery we already released a new version 41 for the web app and it is possible to filter source of stations. It will be available in our mobile apps soon.
