      Hello Windy team,

      Our personal weather station is online and receiving data correctly, but it is still not visible on the general Windy map unless we use the direct station link.

      Station details:

      • Station name: Bordée de Tribord, club de voile
      • Station ID: i4dT6aj
      • Direct link: https://www.windy.com/station/pws-i4dT6aj
      • Sharing: Public / Open
      • Status: Online

      We have been uploading observations successfully every 5 minutes since April 29, 2026.
      The station page works correctly via the direct link, and the latest observations are visible there.
      However, the station still does not appear on the normal Windy map with the standard station marker.

      We are using the current Stations API v2 endpoint:
      https://stations.windy.com/api/v2/observation/update

      Could you please check whether the station is correctly indexed and visible on the public map?

      Thank you very much for your help.
      Markus

        Your station is visible, but you need to zoom in to this level:

        What is more strange is a missing WMO weather station in Le Landeron on the mobile app even at max zoom level

        But visible on the browser version

        At low zoom level all weather stations are not displayed on the map. Same for towns.

          @idefix37 many thanks for your reply.
          I think the station you mention on your map is NOT the one I've connected to windy. My station is at the marina and is effectively appearing on the map but only in forecast mode:

          In station mode, the station pws-i4dT6aj is not visible:

          Can you advise ? many thanks in advance.
          Have a great day!

            That’s strange.
            Hope someone from the Windy staff will solve your issue.
            Good afternoon
