      For any Australian users, I've customized the radar colour in Windy to better match the BOM's colour scheme.

          I just noticed that the new BOM radar colour scale is below:

            @anthony10 I've slightly tweaked the scale to pick up possible hail at 280mm+

              Is it possible to add this range into the radar scale (-35dBZ to 0) without disrupting the normal radar colour scale 0.5> & onwards?

              I've played around with it, but the base colour of grey gets washed out with white.

              I'd like to try and get snow/ice to show on the radar. 🤞
