<![CDATA[Surf forecast]]>Hey, I’m a surfer. When I zoom in to the location where I was to check the surf. I can’t (that I know of) have both wind direction and swell direction on the same screen/options. Here how you could fix it. Have wind blowing direction over the land and swell/ waves on the water. Most surf breaks are near land. Leaving that area missing any helpful information when looking at surf forecast.

Hi,

It's well known that the wind on land doesn't have the same strength and direction as it does at sea.
Frankly, I don't see your problem, because at a given location, you can display the local wind and swell forecasts either on the wind layer, or on the swell or wave layers.

Unfortunately, this is not planned now.
