      I live on St. Croix, USVI. This new layer is absolutely priceless right now with a tropical storm headed our way. The ability to check live at anytime is just fantastic. Thank you so much. I have been using Windy everyday for quite a while, but of course during hurricane season, I'm checking more frequently.

          Excellente amélioration.
          Votre application est une des meilleures, sinon la meilleure, et cerise sur le gâteau elle n'est pas anglo-saxonne......
          Bravo

                  love the radar because it shows the way the earth looks from space so its a great idea to have the radar as an option with the inferred and inferred+!!!

                    I like it. I've been using it for a little while now, but when I went to Windy just now I discovered the infra and infra+ now I like it even more. Windy is my go to app for cycling. I check Windy in the morning before I ride, and I have it on my phone for during the ride. Thanks to Windy I do more riding than my friends who rely on the local weather guessers.

                                Question. I guess this is data from geostationary satellites?
                                Are you doing heavy recalculations for higher latitudes to correct for the low angel at high latitudes?
                                Or is the data raw from the satellite with the angel distortion?

                                    Absolutely awesome! The satellite layer could not have come at a better time for me. I live in Florida and have been in the projected path of hurricane Dorian. The hurricane looks stunning on the new layer -- especially on the 12-hour loop. I cannot believe that I can hold the power of the Windy app in the palm of my hand (Android). Thank you!

                                          As a former pilot for the US Army, I appreciate the satellite view in a format easily understood by us with an aviation background.

                                          • Has there been any consideration of adding 'Fronts' to the display ?

                                            Windy visualizes only weather models data and these models are not able to draw fronts. They are drawn usually by meteorologists so there is no solution at the moment to display fronts on Windy.
