The zoom feature seems to respond to the number of lines scrolled when the scroll wheel is used. This shouldn't happen. Clicking the scroll wheel one click should do the same thing as hitting the + or - sign in the top-right corner. If you have your mouse settings set to scroll, say, 6 lines per click you seem to get about the same zoom as hitting the + or - sign 6 times. It should just be the same as hitting it one time.

It has always been this way. I just never noticed before that the + and - signs had reasonable jumps in zoom because I always used the scroll wheel and got very unreasonable jumps.

Actually disregard, I just tested it on a few locations within very light precip areas and it looks like the threshold is now around 0.2mm or so. Thanks for getting back to me.

What is the lowest rainfall amount that the maps now show? The lowest value on the scale still shows up as 1.5mm

Thanks!
"fav icon" is in yellow edge?

I've seen it! It's cool!!!
But I've suggested improvements to make Winditv more amazing and impressive.

It was great when the card was spherical. Now I can't turn on that view (((
I want to suggest some improvements:

  • to add a phisical map surface layer to -> item like mountains, hills, flatlands and valleys with their names (for example http://www.maps-world.ru/fiz-map.jpg ), to see an influence of relief on wheather like wind or temperature, for education purposes. Current layer is like political map;
  • when we set a mark to any point (where is a button "Forecast for this location") to see an accuracy data of current layer at this point, would be more readable to add a graph diagram of this parameter above calendar slider.

When looking at the general circulation the N Polar view is great. It also shows the recent warm advection across the Arctic quite dramatically. I think it useful to have the option to switch from Mercator to spherical projections. Windy TV is very powerful and useful. Keep up the great work. I like the NAM5km model for the US. It has the detailed airflow over mountains needed to capture precipitation in the Western US.

The lowest value currently shown on the scale for ECMWF 3hr precip is 1.5mm while for the rain accumulation, it's 5mm (although I'm not totally sure if lower amounts still show up on the maps?)

Sincerly I must admit I prefer the older ( actual ) version and user interface ( is more quick and intuitive ). It works very good now to see and fast swicth the models run and the temp and wind situation at 850hp and 500hp ((the most significative heights for forecasts ) The new version is very confusing and totally unuseful for meteo/climatic .Basically I think it would be a big step backwards .The only good thing in the beta is the possibilty to personalize layers colors. I hope you are not going to ruin the great job you were doing till now Please if possible try to mantain also the actual version as option .And maybe develop the beta only for mobile users .Anyway regards for the great job you did and doing .

Are you able to allow us to search by Latitude and Longitude?

It gave partial layers while moving from wind to rain and to waves. See attachments (iPad iOS 10.2)

Edit: can't upload screenshots I receive an error message. Would you kindly provide me an alternative way? Thanks
Dani

I learned about this app yesterday and I really love it. Do you have any plan for a Windows 10 app ? Best regards.

Two suggestions
In "parameters recommanded for...Water", CAPE would be appreciated
In French translation, "visibility" has not been translated to "visibilité"

Could you have a clear identifier on the screen as to the time of the ECMWF or GFS model that is currently being shown.
Also, when you click to pin a position play on the map (to sho local windspeed, for example) could you have the flag identify the lat / long for it? Thanks

Love Windytv.com. Y'all're my home page!

If these issues haven't come up earlier...

... I tried the iOS app and immediately trashed it -- it simply didn't compare to the desktop version
... I use a permanent browser link on my iPad to access Windytv.com so it's the same as on my desktop

... new "10" version seems fine, but looks cheaper
... perhaps the faster-moving wind and color gradations are at issue?
… anyways, the “10” version doesn’t feel “professional,” and I like the “pro feel”!

Will still love ya whatever you do!

Warmest aloha!
