      Hi there,

      Would be really usefull to have the altitude datas from arome available both in the interface and plugins. Is this feature planned to be implemented?

      thx

        Windy uses AROME 1.3km version. This version does not provide data in altitude. It should be necessary to use the 2.5km resolution version as explained here:

        BTW Arpege model is not available on Windy.

          Thanks for your quick reply.

          This model (arome, 2.5km grid then) is a must have for the paragliding community in france, as it is often the more accurate. It would be great if it could be implemented. I guess the lack of it prevent windy to become a complete source of weather forecast for our activity, and thus to become the uncontested leader on this purpose.
