      Is there currently something being done to fix this problem by Windy? I've been following this thread since its beginning. I do understand that the issue is with the data provider, but I would like to know if there is any indication that the problem will be fixed. (It began the day right after I bought premium :( )

        @Filip_K Good morning, i were checking about the access to static images with Radar information, last week were not accesing from outside SMN Servers, today i've got access to the single images regariding Doppler Radar.

        https://estaticos.smn.gob.ar/vmsr/radar/RMA2_240_ZH_CMAX_20241129_105715Z.png

        Here the sample

        Here the list loading the JS on the web for EZE Radar.

        08f30454-74a4-4662-9fa5-88a09995fd94-image.png

        I'm not sure if you are using this interface to capture images or require a different one, as you and we in argentina knows, contact someone on the Meteorological service is tought task.

        Hope hit help to solve the issue.

        Best Regards

            We finally got reply from SMN in the beginning of December. Since then, there was no replies to our inquiries, unfortunately.

                  @Filip_K In a way it's not acceptable a situation like this, year 2025 and being so difficult to handle and solve a situation like this seems very strange!

                    How can we help, this is really annoying, Meteored has the data, maybe they can help?

                          Weather radar coverage has been partially restored with data feed from Meteored. Thank You again @Ponyo-Nauta for pointing us into right direction.

                                  @Filip_K well so the solution come from outside our country and SMN.

                                  Yesterday noticed some linear artifacts like echos forming rectangles. Later I noticed that those lines matched with zones with special alerts for severe weather. I think that the new source is picking lines from the short term alert system and interpreting those lines as radar echoes. Probably not fixable on your side because it's already in the data.

                                  Don't get me wrong I more than happy. Just wanted to share my discovery because it could be helpful.

                                      If you are talking about the “long spikes” shown in the screenshot from @Matías-Tadeo-Rossi, these are due to interferences by WiFi sources.
                                      Nothing to do with alert system.
                                      These spikes appear when DFS of RLAN-WiFi equipment is not correctly operating :

                                            Weather Radar data is not showing up for a whole country I-e Pakistan. We want to buy Windy API and integrate it with our web application. However, some part of Pakistan shows no data while other is simply greyed out.

                                            Our platform is also used in some parts of Africa and there is not radar data for that. Wondering if that is a bug or Windy does not serve those regions?
