Tide Forecast on Windy
-
As a professional sailor, I can tell you it looks really nice.
——> But please, please, please do not use feet for tides. Or at least make it possible to use meters.

@mathijsb_
Meters are available !
I never use feet but there are some countries using the imperial units for tide heights.
-
@idefix37 ah I see now! Thanks! It would be amazing if it is possible to change between feet and metres.
How did you get the sailor icon? -
@mathijsb_
I agree. There is no reason to keep ‘feet’ as first unit as there are very few countries using it for tides.Join a group to get the icon

"There is no reason to keep ‘feet’ as first unit as there are very few countries using it for tides.
I would think amount of users would be more important the amount of countries in that respect. What I don't understand is why it just can't be set as a preference in settings like most other units? Then everybody wins. Right?

@idefix37 ah perfect. Thanks a lot!

I live on a small island on the west coast of Canada ( near Sidney BC) so wind and tides are both important info for boating! The new tide feature is a welcome addition and seems to be fairly accurate so far. The odd date formate like 18.2 through me at first. It would be nice to see that changed.
Eventually a line graph plot when turning iPhone or iPad in landscape mode would be sweet for tide tables! -
Fantastic, works fine for me on the Chesapeake. FYI I do use feet for depth just because I have an instant feel for it and it's what's on my charts and my depth sounder, though it doesn't really matter Ft or M. I wish the tide current info could be included in the route planning tool.

Tieden sind gut. Ich wünschte mir aber einen etwas längeren Zeitraum als 3 Tage, um besser planen zu können.

Love the tides feature

Can we display something similar to in the link? Thanks. Tide graph

@wingv
Hi, there is no way to get this type of graphical display for tide on Windy. -
Decent tidal information. I would really like to be able to click on a tidal reporting station and see an ebb and flow graph where I can slide to see what the tide will be at a certain time.
For example, at my boat launch I need at least a 5.0 tide to be able to use the launch, so being able to see exactly when I will have tide, or when the tide will be below my minimum requirement would be very useful.

I use a widget on a fishing report I manage that sounds like exactly what you are after.

You can drag the circle along the graph to to see exact times and wave heights.I've asked before for a graph style tide graph but it never got much traction. It's hard to understand as their wind graph is the best in the business so I know they understand the importance of a visual graph vs printed data. Hopefully more people will chime in.
Cheers

@ivo be great to get tides for Republic of Ireland.

Hi there, I’m a big fan of Windy weather and would like to see better information on tides/currents. I’m a rower on the Brisbane River and we like to see the tide heights and times / date etc.
