Localisation of Cyclones
-
It would be good if the localisation was extended to naming of weather events, such as Cyclones for us in the Southern Hemisphere
-
If you are talking about tropical cyclones in South Hemisphere, they are currently displayed and named in Windy
See as example this one

@idefix37 I was about to bring this up as here in NZ we are about to be slammed by Cyclone Vaianu. There is no alert for New Zealand at all, even though it's already hit other Islands in the Pacific. & we are feeling the impact before landfall already. But North to North East of Australia are much smaller Cyclones which have an alert on them. I specifically came to Windy to look up the info on it but got nothing

Tropical cyclone Vahianu formed in 2006.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone_VaianuTwo tropical cyclones are currently being observed in the Pacific region.

@idefix37 check your spelling as that is the wrong cyclone. I took my spelling directly off the weather site here in New Zealand as a copy & paste to make sure it was right.

@Rose59
That would be nice that you give a link to the NZ weather website or a screenshot.
In your area for tropical cyclones Windy uses data from BoM (Australia), ECMWF, and MetOffice (UK).
May be they miss this tropical cyclone.
But even the JTWC does not mention the TC you are talking about.
