      Yes! There are different thickness of flash symbols!
      Ivo, sorry! I did not notice it earlier.

      Yes, it is possible to have thundersnow.
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thundersnow

      If you zoom-in over east Nepal-China border (Himalayas) you'll see such areas.
      https://www.windy.com/?rain,2018-07-16-12,27.885,86.891,8

      I believe (if 2 different situations exist, e.g. snow and tstm) the "strongest" feature must come into view (appear).
      The "strength" is determined by the "bigger number" in W.M.O. table of weather symbols.
      See: wxSymbols_anno1.pdf , here http://weather.rap.ucar.edu/info/about_wxsymbol.html

          Super prace, jen mi chybi k uplne dokonalosti volba bourky ve widgetu (web aplikace) tak abych se mohl operativne prepinat mezi radarem a bourkama. Primlouvam se za tuto drobnou upravu.

                    Footnote from DrD...I would like a float-out label on the icons. I don't know which one does what, yet. It would help if they had a mouse-over label. Thanks, though...this is still great.

                              You guys are better than my national weather service, for crying out loud. Got any work for a remote sensing specialist?

                                    Dear Sir, dear madam

                                    5 minutes ago I discovered your service.
                                    I had to hold my breath, I cannot believe
                                    the quality and availability of your service.
                                    In a few years I will start a circumnavigation,
                                    your "Windy" will keep me safe.

                                        I have a ranch with Central Pivot irrigation in northern San Luis Province, Argentina. Electric th'storms are terrible there and cause a lot of damage on the electric parts of the equipment. A good forecast on this would be very helpul for us in preventing such an electric storm and unplug all in advance. Thanks..!
