      Hi. I am using Windy in a Home Assistant dashboard. It seems to be working fine except for one thing: My location is right about in the center of the attached screenshot, but the marker is showing quite a ways off to the NW.

      I am using my exact lat/long from Google Maps in the GET parameters (decimals obscured here for privacy) like so:

      https://embed.windy.com/embed2.html?lat=33.xxxx&lon=-111.xxxxx&zoom=9&level=surface&overlay=radar&menu=&message=true&marker=&calendar=&pressure=&type=map&location=coordinates&detail=&detailLat=33.xxxx&detailLon=-111.xxxxx&metricWind=mph&metricTemp=%C2%B0F&radarRange=-6
      

      So I'm not sure where that maker is getting set or what I am doing wrong. Can someone suggest how to fix this so the marker is at my actual location?

        @dryheat122 This difference can be caused by IP localization detection, instead of using GPS.
