Blocking Patterns
-
I am currently instructing a class and as we were highlighting blocking patterns at 500mb windy beat us to it and labeled it and as I moved the map it went away and we would love to know how to get it to do that again. Thanks!

To get what ? To show the geopotential heights at 500 hPa ?
If you talk about blocking patterns like the Ω blocking or the Rex blocking also named diffluent blocking, Windy does not describe specifically these blocking patterns. -
@idefix37 For it to label the the blocking patterns again. Twice was an accident and the third time I don't know what i was doing but labels came up for the type of pattern I was over.

As far as I know, Windy never displayed blocking pattern labels.
I guess you didn't take a screenshot. Can you tell us what the chosen parameters were? -
Well i had winds on and i was at 45000 ft alt it was the 29th at like 18z so you could see the omega blocking pattern well. I just finished clicking out of the weather picker.

You don't specify where you observed this Omega blocking pattern. I don't see it in the Northern Hemisphere. But the model has been updated in the meantime.
However, I see a Diffluent blocking, also called Rex blocking, over Europe.
