      Hello Windy team,

      ​When zooming in on large cities like Paris on the Android app, the grey urban background from the base map darkens the weather layers (like temperature).

      Because the weather layer is semi-transparent, this distorts the perceived color scale and gives a false visual impression of a severe heat island effect.
      ​Would it be possible to add a setting to either:
      ​1. Hide the urban grey areas on the base map.
      2. ​Allow users to adjust the opacity of the weather layers to 100% so the base map doesn't bleed through.
      ​
      Thank you for your great work, happy to be a premium subscriber.
