The CA Real Time Fire Web site recommends Windy for estimating a wild fire’s (detected by satellites) estimated movement direction. The problem with your application is that a wildfire location is specified by its Lat / Lon coordinates. If you post this information into Windy’s Search field, it is unable to interpret a Lat / Lon location. It only recognizes text names.

PM2.5 ug/m3 readings stop after 5 seconds
On the prior and current versions, the actual PM2.5 ug/m3 value can be selected by long touching a location. On the latest version only, the actual PM2.5 ug/m3 value now disappears after 5 seconds. In all prior versions the mg/m3 value was continuously updated and displayed during any multi day forecast animation. Please do not make the ug/m3 value disappear after 5 seconds.
I long touch a location and get the correct information. I start the forward forecast sequence and the ug/m3 goes away. This is my screen image before the actual ug/m3
Value goes away.https://share.icloud.com/photos/03ar5lf-n_51QoI2ElLjngYgA

Please add CO2 to your Air Quality options
We are required to use earth.nullschool.net in order to see a world wide CO2 concentration map. You cover the rest of the major air pollution categories but this one is conspicuously absent. Please add this layer to a future update.

Copy displayed GPS coordinates to the clipboard as an option
It would be helpful if the displayed GPS coordinates were copied to the clipboard as an option. This would be particularly helpful for avoiding fire or high PM2.5 area.
