      I think it would be better when it was on first beta with purple scaled colors. I liked blue-purple colors on infrared+ version..

            Hi, the cut between two satellites (0 deg and ~40 deg E?) in the new beta version is a bit westward than it use to be in the old beta version.
            Is it possible to change it back?
            I think that the 0 deg satellite has better spatiotemporal resolution, so if it could be more widely used, it will benefit more people.

            Thanks!

              @koko_a Hi, thank you for your feedback! This is a compromise solution. We moved the line because of hurricanes in the Atlantic ocean - they were often split. So now whole ocean is covered by one Goes satellite. I admit that the resolution is slightly worse near its eastern edge. We are thinking also about single satellite mode, so you would be able to choose just one satellite that you want to see.

                @HavalarinSesi Thank you for your feedback! In our survey much more people voted for the rainbow palette so we put it back.

                  Been with you as a supporter for a long time. Pleased with the ever growing weather platform and the add on's. Who are you all and that Queen "B" ? mysterious woman in the middle. I enjoy promoting you all here in Canada. Thanks, blessings and you look like a great happy group on this celebratory day.

                      I love it! But when I zoom or navigate it crashes my Macbook Pro 2015 completely. Not even just the browser, but the whole machine. Tested both on FF and Chrome. (And, yes, I still love it.)

                        I wanted to let your team know that your windy site has now become my defacto site for weather. I am a closet weather man and used to go to the NOAA, weather channel (not very often!!!!), different satellite, channels, etc. Now, Windy is the only place. Nicely done. The satellite layer....WOW. Again, the little twists you place on the page draws you further into it. Not so good for my marriage, but....you can't have it all.. LOL.

                        Good work!!!

                          I liked the satellite visible/infra layer. I used it to see how the typhoon Kammuri to hit Philippines. It is helpful for travel schedule. Everyone can have a professional weather station in his computer and smartphone.

                                great work... very useful for areas that don't have updated weather satelite coverage

                                  @koko_a @ivo Yes, weather picker temperatures for above 240K would be amazing!

                                      You've done great works.
                                      The function is almost same as commercial weather service, that my company use it.

                                          Great addition to the site/app! Are there any plans to add scatterometry wind vectors at some point? That, add adding the ability to change lat/lon setting to decimal degrees are top of my wish list.
