thank you!

Hi Ivo, in the Meteogram view instead of blank values in most spots could you just make the values (Temp - Dewpoint)/4.4 as otherwise us sailplane pilots have to sit there and calculate that for each. Or add a Cumulus-Cloudbase row beneath it (either is fine). Thanks for such a great site! - Michael Price

A great application. I have a technical question. I am monitoring the surface currents in a particular area off Key West in preparation for a future operation. When I am well zoomed in, I get one current value (e.g., 0.4 knots), but if I zoom farther out, the reading increases dramatically.

Can someone explain why this happens?

Thanks,

Curt

@cnewport The more you zoom in the more details you get. Value in map picker is loaded from the current zoom level.

@tz Got it thanks! I will check that out. I figured it had something to do with surface area averaging, etc.

I just installed and like the wind animation on startup. I played with overlays and now cannot get the original wind animation back. How do I do this? Is there a total reset option?

Hi Ivo love your app, I am a fishing guide in the west of Ireland, and fish some big lakes, your app has made fishing big waters so much safer, from strength to direction colour, blue being my favorite ,,, actually no wind , ironic thanks

I thought Canada was to the north of the US and Mexico to the south of the US, when I look at the reported weather going on right now in North Carolina, the wind directions showing north are pointing south and the wind showing south are pointed to the north. is this an error on windy.com?

[idefix37]

@catbird
No, this is not an error, the wind direction is reported from where it comes. A northerly wind blows from the North to the South. So even I you see the wind going to the south, it’s a North wind, the cardinal N direction or the 0º in azimuth.

@idefix37
thanks

@catbird
Right now in North Carolina, near Fayetteville, the predicted wind is ESE (110°) blowing from that direction pointing WNW. Reported wind is more Easterly wind pointing toward West.
I cannot see any trouble.

Dobrý den, chci se zeptat zdali by bylo možné zasílat na meil, nebo ukazovat předpověd přímo pro Předhradí.
Je to jižně 3km od Skutče. Děkuji

Ivo,
Great project! I would like to scale the charts my own needs.
e..g. I would like to chart winds between 7m/s and 15m/s and visualize them in the colours that I want or visualize only the winds I want...
e..g. I want a map of the Belgian coastline that shows winds from 7m/s to 20m/s
Looking forward to receive your feedback.
kind regards
Ludovic Claeys

Wind speed(m/s) appears whole number(5m/s).
How can I change decimal point(5.8m/s).
