          Fantastic layer. It is great to get both radar and satellite in the same layer.

          For some constructive feedback, I really like the ability to select the speed of the radar playback in the web browser version of the Radar layer. Faster gives a great quick overview and the ability to watch the loop several times in quick succession, while slower makes it easier to see exactly where the rain passed over.

          It would be great to have the ability in the Radar+ layer. Plus the mobile versions as well.

              The combined maps look much better. It gives a more realistic idea of actual weather as it's happening.

                I was seeing both the satellite imagery AND the weather radar when this new 'beta' layer first came out and loved it! However for the past several weeks whenever I select this layer using Chrome as a browser ( my default ) it simply displays the satellite imagery w/o the radar. It still displays correctly using Microsoft's Edge. Any idea on how I can get the two to display as advertised using Chrome?

                  May be you switched off the radar (RAD)

                    I discovered windy since it was called windity... I still use it as my first weather forecast for sailing and snowboarding... Ofcourse I am premium... Well done on the new layer. I very much enjoyed it.

                        Really interesting feature, it's often useful to combine different views and this feature is the perfect solution. Congrats.

                          I'm new to the Windy community and a early stage hobbyist around all things weather, but this view is very intuitive for someone like me. Helps paint a useful picture and map to what I'm seeing outside with my own eyes!

                          Cool stuff!

                            @zehenderson I also like how I can turn on the isolines of pressure and overlay that as well!

                              Hi to you all Windy team members.
                              This is exactly the weather forecast/historic App I was looking for.
                              Thanks for your inspired ideas :-)

                                @Polina-Nozdrina great addition! Ive been using the meteoradar functionality the most frequently and it saved us with the kids in the Swiss Alps last summer during a sudden hail storm. Windy is one of the few paid apps Im using and will continue to do so!

                                  Best weather app I have found in New Zealand. Congratulations windy on your addition of radar+. Great addition. Smooth and accurate.

                                      Mit dieser kombinierten Radar-Sat Animation ist Windy an der zuverlässigsten pc-met vom Deutschen Wetterdienst vorbeigezogen.

                                        buen día hace como tres años que consulto windy, y hay unas cosas que aún no entiendo, espeero que con Radar+, puede ser más fácil que yo comprenda mejor. gracias.

                                          I'm not seeing the new ( Radar+ ) layer from Chrome ( my default browser ) OR from my Windy app ( Android ). Shows up just fine from MS's Edge. Any ideas or suggestions?

                                            This is by far the best weather app ever! We live in Sweden but I also travel some and we're ever I go, you come with me...
                                            The new features are superior.
                                            Thank You!
