I've noticed this too from my end. Several radar loops in the central and eastern regions of Thailand haven't been updating for a couple of weeks. Hope the dev team can look into the data source connection.

I just noticed that Sattahip (which I thought was gone long time ago) appears to be back online https://file.royalrain.go.th/opendata/radar_data/cappi/?station=sattahip

But I also notice that the website royalrain.go.th asnwers sometiems extremely slowly and sometimes not at all. Maybe a related problemm...

I would liek to pop this up again. I think that part of the issue could be solved by reintegrating Sattahip again. This is Sattahip

And this is Windy

@corsita Hello, our colleagues are aware of this issue and they will start to work on this in upcoming days.

Hi @David-Polášek

Just following up on this—do you happen to have any updates or a rough ETA on when the updated TMD radar feeds might be integrated?

Thanks again to the team for looking into it!

Hello @Suty

The missing radar data over sections of Thailand (and in extension over Myanmar and Cambodia) is still unresolved.

It's been missing for about a month now and I would appreciate any concrete updates that you can provide.

When similar issues arose in the past, Windy claimed the problem started from issues with local satellite providers — were you able to use the info provided by @corsita ? Do you have any idea when the radar on Windy will be fully functional again?

@pph398 Yes, our colleagues already have all available source, but there is other higher priority stuff. Thank you for your patience.

corsita

@Suty looks like you are working on it. If not and for information: one more is gone. Now also Bangkok is in the dark

David Polášek

Hey everbody @aznareus @karn-7 @gregrc @skorchio @pph398

Thanks a lot for sending the new sources. Right now, everything seems to be fixed and working properly again.

Hello David,

unfortunately it looks like the radar in Sattahip has not been integrated. This used to cover the southern east part of Trat Province, Trat city, Koh Chang, Koh Mak and Koh Kood.

Sattahip coverage

What has been added is the radar from Suvanabhumi Airport

Suty

@corsita Hello, our colleagues still work on new radar in Thailand. Some radars were much easier to add them, so they are already available. Other ones still take some time, so this should be a reason for this.

Hi @Suty and @David-Polášek,

Thank you to the Windy team for fixing the radar sources in Thailand!

However, as @corsita mentioned, the current radar sources still do not cover the easternmost part of Thailand. Regarding the Sattahip radar link he shared, it appears it might not be accessible from outside Thailand.

The Rayong radar source from the TMD website that I mentioned in the thread opener (https://weather.tmd.go.th/ryg240.php) should cover all of eastern Thailand and is publicly accessible. Could you please check if this source can be integrated to fill in the missing coverage?

Thank you again for your hard work!

@aznareus Hello, our colleagues are working on many adjustments in radar over Thailand and they have this thread saved for these purposes.
