<![CDATA[Windy version 19 brings articles, better distance tool and Leaflet 1.4]]>Windy version 19 is here and it brings some major changes:

Summary

  • Windy Articles
  • Better Distance & Planning tool
  • Better possibility to share tracks, positions via URL
  • Major mapping library updated to Leaflet 1.4

Changes in detail

  • Windy is here to help save lives or property by informing others about severe weather phenomena or state of our Earth's climate. Therefore we are proud to present to you Windy Articles. Windy Articles should help our users and other media to inform about these events, but not only that. We would like to educate others about weather and its dangers. You can use Windy Articles as a publication platform and start writing your articles too, here is how.
  • The major mapping library we use was upgraded from Leaflet 0.77 to Leaflet 1.4. This will help mainly our Plugin developers and later on our API users. So if you will have feeling that something is not right, just let us know. Unfortunately we use some fixes in the library so here is our fork of Leaflet that seems to work https://github.com/windycom/Leaflet
  • We have brought back the possibility to open Windy and force to display the weather picker in the middle. Just add d:picker to one of the URL params and it should work.
  • We have improved the distance & planning tool, so now you can export your track in GPX or XML. And we have also fixed the timeline bug, so your track can cross the timeline.
  • A major improvement is also the fact that now you can share or even open Windy with some track, just by constructing the track in URL. The format is simple. Just use semicolon separated coordinates where lat and lon are separated by comma. Example: www.windy.com/distance/lat1,lon1;lat2,lon2;lat3,lon3

desc: Windy version 19 has improved distance tool

A lot of work on this release was done by Ivo, Marek, Milan, Filip and Martin.

So enjoy Windy 19, report any issues and stay safe!

As an old buzzard its been difficult to understand just where i am and where i have come to. But golf, weather and sky-watching,and music are my pleasures and thanks to the likes of you techies for hooking me in my government aviation works back long ago. Now reaching more and more stuff the simple ways with so little abilities in following the script but a click and go kinda guy. You lost me in the pre-amble here, so if at all possible make things as simple to access as you can, for us guys who made somebody rich by buying those, weather for dummies books. anyway thanks for getting us this far and cheers for making this platform, and try making things as simple as possible for the old buzzards. And we'll keep donating, money, and data when we know how. Lol.
