Windy launches Radar+ layer combining Satellite and Radar view
-
Radar+ is a great addition. It will make it possible for me to see both of the views I like to see without switching back and forth. The ability to correlate the two views is a welcome addition.
-
Keep on rockin! Love the new features.
-
Thanks for the new tool. I'm a sailing instructor and use windy every day. Now I started to engage myself intensively in meteorology. The new radar tools are perfekt for analysis and comprehension of the observations.
-
The new radar+ features look amazing at a macro level zoom. County or state size scale, or a whole country. Zooming into see local weather at say a city level, the satellite layer becomes a bit too vague and then it is better to switch it off.
-
Great addition!😊
-
I do like the new Radar+ feature, however it keeps crashing when I try to play the animation.
I assume it’s still in beta, so looking forward to official release.

Ik vind Windy een perfecte app ik gebruik hem voor het vliegvissen en dat doet hij geweldig mooi. Vooral met inzoomen. Ook erg goed met de mogelijkheid om verschillende lagen te zien. Al met al een topper van een weer app.

Thanks for the awesome app -- it's my go to first stop weather impressions.
(Edited to remove my original question -- figured it out)

@Polina-Nozdrina i just love Windy,,,thanks you for providing this to the public!

@Polina-Nozdrina it is the icing on the cake for an already perfect app!! Living in the tropics makes Windy an important tool in our planning. Being able to have the pinpoint accuracy with the new imaging is so awesome!! Thanks!!

I have been using windy since it's inception as monitoring of weather is part of my job in the ports authority to plan for any incoming inclement weather disturbances and the probable typhoon's path. It was my source of data during Super Typhoon "Odette" that directly hit my workplace at PPA- Ubay in the Philippines. That was my Fiat time to experienced being in a strong typhoon and the eye of the storm that lasted more than half an hour. The devastating effects of a super tyhoon was massive where all the trees lost its leaves and flattened all the structures near the beach.
The ports corner concrete bulkhead was tossed a 100m from its original location.
Without windy.tv I could nit possibly knew where the super typhoon Odette would hit.
Thanks windy.tv for my your help!❤️💪👍👏 -
Windy is the best weather app. The new feature seems to be very useful, altho I have to get used to it so I can get best of it. Thanks a lot windy team!

Thank you! I've been waiting for this layer for 5 years as it is the best way to clealry communicate the current weather situation!!
-
Looks nice! I wish we could disable radar smoothing on this layer and the regular radar layer. Sometimes the jagged edges give more data than the processed blobs.
-
Very useful layer! Kudos for continuing to improve your product.

nice info,thx for share

Hello!
I think it's a good idea.
I use it mostly when I'm preparing my bike training to know if rain is coming or not. Cloud movement, ceiling if low or other info to be as informed as possible.
In my opinion, it would be good if you can enter wind speed and direction in Radar + to get a bigger picture of the weather!
PS: my parents also use it on the farm to know when to do certain farming operations!
And of course it would be cool if we had the possibility of some premium 14/30 trials! -
Love the Blue display. Use it every time now.

Love the Blue version. Combining satellite and radar is fantastic. Windy has become my favorite weather app.

Windy’s maps and pictures look very pretty,
But of far greater importance to sailors is the accuracy of wind direction and strength. Windy is proving to be very very unreliable in Greece.
The forecasts invariably tend to be very general and do not reflect reality. Windy needs to compare actual conditions with its forecasts and amend its models accordingly. Sadly windy seems to focus its efforts on its fancy pictures rather then accuracy. Windy’s lack of inaccuracy is darn right dangerous for sailors using this app .
About time windy executives visited Greece on a boat and compared forecast verse reality.
Windy is quite good at predicting temperature for sunbathers but hopeless at warning sailors of wind conditions accurately
