      Bloody Amazing.. I watched a rain shower approach my apartment in real time and accurately replicated what I saw from my balcony...I am assuming the infrared+ represents cloud thickness = rain intensity?

      Danang Vietnam...

      PS shared your link to this new capability to my local FB expat community.. we are heading into Typhoon season

        INFRA + represents the altitude of top of clouds. That’s useful information about convective storm especially in tropical region. Pls find further information by this link:

          Great layer. Keep it up. If I were a rich man, I would support you financially in a big way but I am supporting you the best I can.

                  Fantastic addition to an already awesome service. Windy has pretty much taken over the home screen of my computer. Great insight to worldwide weather patterns and great value to marine interests.. Thank you and best wishes for continued success!

                          Really like the satellite layer! I use your site as my go-to weather page out here in the desert in SW Texas. All the hard work is very much appreciated!

                            Like satellite. I think better than noaa for where we are, Hawaii. I can zoom out and get a picture of where hurricanes are and a lot easier. Just need a distance scale somewhere but nonetheless, great job! My fav for weather and keeping an eye on it for 50 yrs.Prev.Alaska, NH/VT, NC, CO, HI.

                              @M-Sixteen said in Windy launches Satellite layer:

                              Just need a distance scale

                              You have it already with Distance & planning tool. Better than a traditional distance scale as you can get a precise measurement between 2 points on the map. Just need a right click on mouse.

                              In addition, a fixed distance scale is impossible to use on a map based on the Mercator projection because the distances on the map vary according to the latitude.
