Windy launches Radar+ layer combining Satellite and Radar view
-
It's not easy to keep a mature app updated and reliable, and it's even more challenging to innovate it. Congratulations on your courage to implement new features and your professional approach.

Radar+ is a feature I've contemplated requesting for sometime; very pleased it's now here.
Tried in several locales (no "weather" here 😁) & notice that Infrared from satellite view doesn't function as expected in Radar+.
A small glitch no doubt (perhaps the AUS data feeds not integrating).
Again thanks for this much anticipated feature.

Great app and the new layer is really good. I am a coffee planter (Farmer) in India and have been using the app for some time and the best app just got better in predicting the weather for my farm work for the day.
Opening the app is like saying good morning for me.
Keep up the great work -
That's awesome! The Radar+ layer sounds like a game-changer for weather tracking. Can't wait to try it out.

@Polina-Nozdrina really great feature looking forward to use it as an additional sourve of information in my meteo flight prep

Amazing 🥂🥰

I’ve trusted Windy for 5 years.
We’ve sailed the Sea of Cortez and Pacific Mexico for the past 5 years and have come to rely and trust Windy’s forecasts. I’m amazed and pleased how consistent the information has been. Wind speed, direction, timing has been nearly flawless. Wave and swell information is an invaluable tool as well. Thanks Windy for making our Mexican journey a trip of a lifetime. -
I love! The Radar+ its awesome to see both Radar and Satellite your able to see things more clear and can bounce the radar off or the satellite to change things up. I love the 15 day out look forecast. Ive been using Windy now sense Dec of 21 best weather app out there hands down! Everything it has to offer on the premium subcreation. I also know in time its only gonna rock more! Id love to see the wind direction from green to red when it comes to see a tornado if ya cant make it out in the normal radar. Also a tornado picking up things it shows a clutter of i think, blue,orange maybe some red been awhile sense ive seen that in a tornado season in ne ok. Hands down the Windy App rock! Cant wait for more stunning feats.. to be open its an endless possibilities.

Would be a great addition to add more radar data for sure. Like velocity scans at a minimum, I'd think most should have that capability.
Things like storm relative velocity are for more advanced radar's and I don't think dual-pol radars are installed worldwide. -
It's cool, I really like it. The radar is much faster to load than any other app I've used.
-
That's a great improvement. The important stuff at once to make decisions

Да WINDY, лучшее приложение для работы, с момента создания не разу не ошиблись в анализах а пользуюсь им уже более 5 лет!!! WINDY Вы лучшие, оставайтесь такими 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I have windy premium but have no Radar + layer
What should I do to gry it? -
I have been using Windy for several years and decided to get premium due to hurricane season. I really like the new view with the combined images. I am very particular about being able to see exactly where the edge of a storm will pass, this is important info for hurricane and tornado weather. This is a much needed improvement.

Absolutely love Windy and tell all my sailing friends who also love it now
I’ve got a couple of bugs that would love to get squashed. I am unable to load the new version of radar+ and my beta version isn’t showing the clouds, just the radar. Let me know how to reset the app, other than starting and restarting which I’ve done so that I can get the new version and give you feedback on that.
If you look at the video my screen, you’ll see that I also have a bug where I press the home button and then a saved location and I get some random spot a few hundred miles south of the location. When I go to save location it works properly. This is a minor issue and easy to work around, but I just thought I’d let you know
-
sorry that that video has no audio. I tried a couple of times and clearly selected the microphone on button, but it hasn’t worked.

@davidshore
That’s strange because I look at your video and it has a perfect audio ! -
Very cool! Can't wait to play with the new feature more. One thing that would be neat is a slider to adjust transparency back and forth between two modes, like the cloud map and radar here, to see how they change together, like wind and snow accumulation, temp and humidity gradients, tide and waves, etc.

Windy is already my go to weather app, and with the new Radar + added to the features, it's like POW!!! That's Windy App setting the bar so high that all those other so called weather apps just got blown into the twilight zone. I rely on Windy app every day for work and leisure activities. Living at the beach I rely on current and forcast weather in and around my location for fishing, flying my drone, chillaxing on the beach, and planning for all of my outside work I have to schedule throughout the week. Since I've been exploring Radar + I can't stop exploring. I was trying to decide if I liked the Blue, Vis, or Infr best but all awesome!! Too bad when you open the app it doesn't play the song "Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer. Thanks Windy App for all the hard work, can't wait to see what's next!
