      I wish Windy.com had a 24 hour temperature change map in the temperature choices. It's an old method of checking air mass movements. Thanks for listening.

        The best way to check the air mass movements in Windy is to set the altitude slider at 850hPa (about 1500m) with the temperature layer.

        As said by ECMWF “The 850 hPa level is usually just above the boundary layer and at this level the day-night variation in temperature is generally negligible. Therefore air temperature at 850 hPa can be used to distinguish between warm and cold air masses or indicate frontal zones”.
