<![CDATA[Beaufort wind scale]]>The Beaufort wind scale is not available in this app. It has been the UK standard for the Met office for a very long time. It is used by the BBC radio shipping forecasts. I have used it for my marine activities for sixty for years. Please could you amend this valuable requirement. Kind regards, Roger M.

Hi Roger,
It's been available for a very long time!
In Settings, simply set the desired wind speed unit.

Even more in the browser version, you can change the units directly clicking on it in the colour scale:

Same in the mobile app when clicking on the units

By the way I customized the colour scale for wind in Beaufort steps. At a glance you see what is wind speed expressed in this unit :
