            Hi. Congratulations for your site!
            I am a paralider pilot. The wind directions in the alerts are not enough "fine tunable" for me. In paragliding more or less 20°make a big difference... Example : I can not set an alert at "ONO", I can only choose between O or NO.

              @jmgalan being honest 20% is just about precision and tolerance of forecasting model, anyway wind direction always oscillates.

                  Better Alarm system with independent alarms for all layers
                  See https://community.windy.com/topic/5115/alarm-conditions-with-and-operators

                    Hi. A version ago on the mobile app there was a slider on the left for altitude. And a setting/slider on the right for the basic view type.
                    I found this very useful as a pilot.
                    I’m presuming you moved away from it because many users are not pilots/aviators.
                    So I would like to propose a user-specified configuration that allows an aviation user (or whoever) to view/utilize the “two slider” GUI.
                    Thanks!

                      You could add many German weather stations for free.. Offered by DWD

                          A Cyclone/Hurricane/Typhoon Forecast Track
                          Once a Tropical Storm is "detected" (not sure with the term), there will be a forecast track for this storm with details about the max. wind speeds, gusts, and storm category.
                          I use this website for forecast tracks and other information (like chances of an area experiencing TS force winds, chances of landfall, etc.)

                              @ivo I do not know much about this service, besides what is on their page, I found while searching seismic maps and cyclones, and I came across it.

                              there looks that they have a paid API for others software, maybe windy can incorporate some info for free, but I don't know.

                                  I have other feature to suggest, support for different map projections, Windy use Mercator projection, but there exist others more useful for studies and etc...

                                  some info.
                                  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_projection
                                  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_map_projections

                                  this site is a tool for see distortions on the Mercator projection.

                                      This would be most helpful (Philippines) as to give an advance warning and probably save lives and give the agency a time in advance remotely

                                          Dear Windy users,

                                          this topic is for everyone who wants to propose a new layer or a new feature to Windy. Feel free to upvote the posts with best suggestions, so we may focus on them with higher priority.

                                          ~ Michal
                                          Is it possible to add the Jet Stream to the display?

                                            We would like:
                                            1) Sea currents layer to work on the API
                                            2) Forecast/Meteogram to work on the API
                                            3) Mass import/export of favorites to be enabled
                                            4) Historical data to become available again.
