      The radar updates are horrible on this. A radar image updated 3hrs and 40 mins ago is not very useful.

        Windy does not create any forecast or actual data but instead only visualises forecast and actual data received from various third party providers.

        If you can provide specific details regarding the delay that you experienced possibly it can be checked.

          When I start Windy, I go to the right hand side of the page and click "Radar, Lightning", the page loads but, at the bottom center of the page is an arrow, at the end of the track shows that the last time it was updated was 5 hr 13 min ago. This is unacceptable, as other weather pages seem to be much more accurate. I enjoyed Windy up to this point. Today is disappointing.

            Radar coverage does depend on the location in question (which neither post mentions) however this delay of several hours seems excessive and I don't remember this being the case previously.

            Has something changed regarding the radar data feed?

            @TomSlavkovsky please check and reply :)

              I am also seeing radar delays in excess of 5 hours in the North East US.

                    The Radar is not the current radar. Usually it is accurate. Please check why the time of radar is off by about 6 hours. I am in Sarasota Florida. Local radar us working. Has to be on Windy side. I also tried adjusting times.
