      I appreciate the view possible in Windy where Radar, Lightning, Satellite and surface pressure is visible simultaneously. Since some recent update, the button for toggling Isolines is greyed out and you cannot display surface pressure isobares. However, if you open the drop-down menu for the different types of Isolines, they will appear. Seems to be a bug?

        By removing the ability to display pressure isolines on the Satellite and Radar layers, I think Windy will frustrate a lot of users.
        It's true that if we want to be rigorous, we shouldn't mix elements from a forecast with those from observations on the same map.
        But we accept that these isobars are very smoothed and are imprecise.

        Or in the case of the AROME model, the displayed isobars are those from ECMWF.
        So why not showing them on an observation map.

        Of course, you have to make sure that these are not the isobars predicted for the following days, as I have done here voluntarily in the mobile app which has not yet been updated.
