      Hi all,
      For a better forecast it would be helpful to get the isobaric pressure lines in different altitude. Would it be possible to integrate this in the maps as well ?
      Cheers
      Steffen

        Meteorologists do not consider the contour of pressure itself at altitude, but rather the geopotential heights of pressure levels. Isolines corresponding to the same geopotential height are displayed in Windy.
        In Windy these heights are expressed in meters.
        In this example you see the heights of the 500hPa pressure level.
