        Hi - what an amazing resource!

        I was directed to your site from a social media post about S02 emissions from specific places in china. The post was saying that the elevated levels of this specific emission might be down to them cremating bodies on a large scale due to the coronavirus!

        I am trying to verify this information. It seems very dubious at first - but I was able to see the very elevated levels concentrated on Wuhan. This entire area is supposed to be on lockdown so I wouldn't expect it to be general industry. Also, the levels are VERY elevated?

        As you don't have historical data available I cant see if this is anomalous or not. Maybe you could help me here by providing some historical data - say the last 12 months? (3 months?? if not maybe just 1 month?).

        Also, where do you get your raw data for S02 emissions? I am assuming it's from a satellite and through an API or similar?

        You can see from the image below that the levels are VERY elevated in 2 very specific locations. And Wuhan is supposed to be on full lockdown. So, at first glance, it does seem to point to something worrying. But I really want to know for sure.

        I really want to try to find out if this fake news or real news - thanks in advance.!S02_mass__20-16_10-02-2020_003.png

                    Good evening,

                    Thanks for creating an account for voeapp@gmail.com on Windy.
                    However, the dissemination of images from our webcam on Windy.com created us a huge problem.
                    We did not make a request for this.
                    This publication by default of our institution has already created a problem for us. It happens that our webpage and the installation of our webcam are sponsored. Each access counts for our sponsor. The image released by Windy.com removes all links from our sponsor. Which has already warned us that if it continues to be shown like this, it will cut off our sponsorship.

                    Therefore, we request the immediate interruption of transmission by Windy, without displaying our webpage and the sponsor's brand.

                    We await immediate action.

                    Thanks!

                            Hi Ivo, is there a way I can predict a cold front coming prediction via Windy? Thanks, Sotir

                              I used to display the Temperature layer at 850hPa altitude. It gives a rough idea of the position of fronts specially the cold fronts.

                              AB6051CF-C275-48A3-8D48-47C09B3E91A7.jpeg

                              If you look at the current weather map analysis you see the main cold fronts

                              2CCCE8CB-6C93-45D4-A19C-83E72DB22DD0.jpeg

                              You see cold fronts in the Atlantic and one, but shown as a stationary front, from Greece to the Baltic Sea.

                              You can imagine them with the Temperature layer at 850hPa

                              DAFA97AD-4E11-4583-8F6E-6AC0C6B40B2E.jpeg

                              It is more obvious if you consider the areas with a high temperature gradient (select temperature isolines instead of pressure isolines). Fronts stand where you find temperature isolines close together:

                              E2526A25-2195-4589-9276-0539B5F68779.jpeg

                              I must say that it is easier to see where fronts stand in winter because the temperature contrasts are more important. In summer it is not so easy.

                                  @sotirpopov Are those images showing warm and cold fronts you made, are from Windy? I can't figure out how to display them?

                                    I think I started getting the idea - playing with isolines for pressure and temperatures, based on your images. Thanks a lot! Sotir

                                      Just select Temperature and adjust the altitude slider at 850hPa.

                                            Would it be possible to add earthquakes?
