        In INFRA+, cloud top temperature given in Kelvin scale (K).
        240K - 273.15 = -33.15°C
        200K - 273.15 = -73.15°C

                  It will be exrtemely helpfull if there will acces for the different satelite channels (just HRV or IR) and RGB composition of channels like NHC RGB Dust Or Fog-and-Low-Clouds (FLC) Products!

                        This is a very good feature, works fine and very accurate loving this
                        Hoping this will be coming to the iOS app soon, not just the web app

                              I think, cloud top temperature scale must be visible only in conjunction with INFRA+.
                              It has no use with VIS nor INFRA.

                                A few hours ago we could observe images of Ubinas volcano eruption in Peru.
                                To find the volcano, type « volcan Ubinas » in the search bar. The plume can be seen if you select 12h, both in VISIBLE and INFRA+

                                D919B5FD-7391-4259-AA24-2CA53CEBB3D9.jpeg

                                It seems that there is a small gap between the plume and the volcano itself, about 7km.

                                  The projection seems very off with California's coast line. It appears you guys managed to finally sink Los Angeles #GlobalWarming

                                  Los Angeles

                                      The Satellite layer is amazing. But i think you should put the true time the sattelite image was taken. I've seen a time in a down bar but the time that is been shown there is not correct. For example in this image of Brazil the down bar says 18:05 but this image was actually taken by the sattelite at 17:40.

                                        love it, didn't think you could improve on the best but you have, you just made it better,all you have to do now is help me to figure out why I can't search locations via postcodes in the search bar. uk is not that big.

                                          hey @ivo , one suggestion, could you enable lightning switch on the sat layer, so that we can overlay sat with lightning?

                                          Greetings from Tomber

                                            Totally agree! I suggest lightnings to be colored yellow or red.
                                            Because white lightnings in white background (clouds) are not easily readable.
