possibility of adding weather watches and warnings to radar/sattelite?
-
It would be nice to add a layer to the radar that we could toggle off watches and warnings (and even select that type of warnings we can see, I.E disable watches only enable warnings)
This could be a useful tool when MET watching.
(also, have links to higher resolution NOAA NexRad sites?)

Just switch to the Weather warnings layer

@idefix37 Now how can we combine the radar and warning overlays, where you can look at radar and the warnings at the same time. Particularly any tornado warnings, etc.
I'm asking about adding a layer similar to the Reported Wind layer, where you can see two layers at the same time. The current warning layer, as is, is not very intuitive or user-friendly as there are no customization options available for opacity, etc.
On another note, out of curiosity. May I ask what data source Windy pulls its global watches and warnings from?
Thanks!

@Bradam123
These warnings are based on CAP Alerts

Then in each warnings message in Windy you find what is the data source.
For example:

@Bradam123 I'd love a severe watch/warning overlay option as well. The Weather Warnings layer is fine, unless you're tracking certain storms via radar.
