      Hi folks,

      Love windy and use it every day.

      I've noticed a change on the desktop version of Windy Airgrams where we no longer see the cloud profile from the surface to higher levels of the atmosphere. It's still there on the phone app but not on the desktop. This makes it harder to view freezing level at 850hPa and how it corresponds to cloud development through the layers. I have to switch back and forth from Airgram and Meteogram on the desktop.

      I have tested this both in Chrome desktop browser and Firefox.

      You can see the difference on the desktop (top image) and phone app (bottom image).

        @temp850 Hi, we are aware of that change and I will discuss this with colleagues tomorrow during the meeting.

          thank you I am new to this forum, but I do use extensively Windy. The Airgram page with the cloud coverage on the bottom as shown above was my favorite go to page for short term forecast. That would be great if you could set as it was in the past.

          thanks again

            Yup please please bring back the old version. Way better to see both in one go.

              @Suty Thank you for taking a look into the airgram. I also really liked the old view for a quick look at what was coming across the board all in one place. Thanks for the work you guys do.

                Any news on the desktop version of Windy that has this problem? It's still problematic looking at the Airgram without any cloud indicators, which is very important during a cold front and snow like we are having in my region at the moment.

                  @temp850 It will be reverted to the previous version, probably in version 46.1. Thank you for your patience.

                    @Suty Thanks so much. I can understand changes but this one was very confusing. Seeing the 850hPa temperature and corresponding that with cloud cover throughout the atmospheric layers is crucial to snow forecasting in my country (Australia) where snow is a marginal event. The difference between a snowfall and just cold rain is crucial in forecasting. And Windy Airgrams were the best in the business. 🙏
