              Fantastic ! I can see the light fading over my Family in Australia while I'm waiting for gales & thunder here in Spain. This development is very exciting for me. Thanks to all the Team. Your effortscare much appreciated.

                @fanta5 It is. I'm in S.E.Spain looking out the window and seeing the light increase as well as watching it onscreen 1 Amazing. Beats TV anytime.

                                    This is amazing! Thank you! I just learned about windy.com in August from a visitor to Alaska from Oregon. Thanks to windy.com we were able to organize our adventures according to where the forest fire smoke was minimal to none using the Air Quality PM setting. When we took a water taxi to an island out of Seward, AK the business owner commented on how lucky we were to get a smoke-free day. I told him it wasn't luck and wrote down windy.com for him.

                                        Hi Windy Team,

                                        Love the new satellite, but only issue would be the K Index and if this could be switched by clicking the legend to Celsius to Fahrenheit to Kelvin etc. This would then make it easier for those around the world to understand what the cloud tops are in there region metric units rather then International Standard Only.

                                        Apart from that loving the satellite and update.

                                          @TZ I have a suggestion. Consider switching the satellite provider to the GOES -16 AND GOES-17 satellites instead of the current European one. Those satellites can distinguish between snow and clouds. You would also still have the ability to see clouds in IR at night, plus IR +. Also, 5-minute time steps are available with the GOES satellites.

                                            @hidp123 Windy already has the ability to see the clouds at night. That's what the blue clouds are at night. It's simply the satellite's interpretation of what clouds would look like at night if they could be seen from space by astronauts, which they cannot, but with all these microwave sensors and doodads onboard, now we CAN see clouds at night. Also, just go to IR and IR +. Only thing is IR + will not update as often as visible and IR.
