      Hi, I can spot a number of stations with incorrect data in the Schwarzwald area of Germany. These stations always show a temperature of -1C, which in this season is clearly incorrect.

        If you click on them, you'll see that these are personal weather stations (pws), without temperature observations.
        Two of them only provide wind reports.

          @idefix37 That's right, but then the temperature data shouldn't be shown on the map.

            @schwartzjmc Unfortunately, the temperature is sent by the owner of these stations. It looks there is a constant value and we cannot do much with that.

              @Suty I see this is recursive issue. I have stations close to my place reporting always 20 degrees over the real temperature. There is no way to hide this station. That should be fixed somehow. Otherwise this layer is totally useless, depending on the place you live...
