Linux is for servers, database, routers, other embedded systems and supercomputers.

It is not for desktop. It sucks at it. As long as there are many dozens of distros of Linux desktop - Linus desktop will suck a**.

Abandon Linux while you still have hope;

Just don't go to Windblows.

@Benjamin-Conner-2

I direct you to this American Map printer's statement about it:

It is the Gulf of Mexico to all countries that count.

The USA does not count. Trump is your moron.

Windy is not subject to moronic law.

@idefix37
Yes. And again today this happened.

Despite being in 1hr mode:

a) Came up in 3rd mode, and
b) the setting to start in previous mode was off again.

This is very strange.

SET AGAIN AS:

We'll see how it goes.

I set Windy to recall my 1hr/3hr setting in the location forecast bar. (Mac OS, Safari). I like it to always be at 1hr.

But the setting to recall that keeps getting set to off,
("Startup layer and location" settings).

So, I end up with the 3hr view every time I come back.

(Yes, I remain logged in; though that too sometime logs me out w/o being invoked).

This bug seems to come up within months of it being fixed.

@schilpat
Oy - right - setting it smooth works. Thanks.

(I get it... smooth interpolates (and extrapo?) between frames and future is extrapolation - same maths.)

But - All these obscurities make for bug reports I guess.

When a location forecast bar is open, there is a preference for 1hr/3r resolution. (Premium users can select 1hr).
In the past I set my settings to remember my prior setting (which is always 1h) so that when re-opening Windy it would be set to 1 hour.
The setting to remember the preference is not retaining its setting.
This bug occurred about 6 months (or more) ago and was (apparently) fixed.
It's baaaaaaaaack.

Mac OS 26, Safari or Chrome (latest versions).

Thanks,
Beast

@schilpat
Mac OS Tahoe 26.0.1
Safari 26.0.1

This has been persistent for 2 months or more in Safari on Mac OS. (Prior version and current).

{another thing that doesn't work in Mac OS, + Safari is this comments section! I could not reply to your reply. Had to switch to Chrome}

With Chrome in Mac OS the radar lookahead function works fine.

When dragging radar forward in time, the predictor is not working. It stopped working about 2 months ago. (This is the 1h radar plot extrapolation).
(Safari on Mac OS [desktop]).

[ It works fine on iOS 26. ]

I reported it here about 2 or 3 weeks ago ... but can't find my report anymore.

Would be nice to have this back!

Thanks,
Beast.

Desktop (Safari / Mac).

The ability to drag the weather radar timeline 1 hour into the future:

• slider works (can drag it to the right of 'now').

• prediction of precipitation does not move forward in time.

(Mobile (iPhone) version works fine).

@Suty It's in my web version. Don't know about the mobile app version.
Thanks.

It is quite annoying that the "remember 1h/3h setting" occasionally reverts to off.

edit: About every month or so. As if during some app/webcode update, the prior setting is lost.

The automatic renewal notice comes out 5 days before the end of a subscription. This seems designed to trap people into an automatic renewal.
Such notices should be at least 15 days - more like 30 days before an automatic charge to someone's credit card.

I would like to be able to "tag" a leading edge of a radar (rain/snow) and have:

Speed
Direction of travel (degrees true)

I would like the radar image to be "propagated" for up to 3 or 4 hours forward.
(1st order should be easy; 2nd order feasible).

Please add user location markers and a range/direction cursor.

ie: the user (in his settings) sets a location (L/L) to have a mark on the map.

An option is to have notation beside the cursor with range and direction (to or from) the selected marker.

Can't find account period end info.
Can't find renewal price.
Can't find if it is automatic.

Thanks.

@tjab48313
The strobes are a radar artifact. Canada recently upgraded all of its radars, and these artifacts came along with them. Horrendous. (I suspect the range of the new radars isn't as good as the old ones either).
See my other reply to Korina as well regarding products that have the strobes and not.

@korina
What is strange is that the "public" facing weather page (the second image above) is from the service that owns the radars. So they seem to be cleaning up the strobes before putting out their map.
I don't know how you get the radar data from them, but perhaps contact the Minister of the Environment to ask if the "cleaned up" product is available?

@korina
I'm not planning a route. Simply making a measurement of distance. Nothing more.

@wedda

I just went to https://24timezones.com/timezone-map to complain that they don't have the weather on their site. The fiends!

@korina
When I right click, I get "distance and planning" - doesn't mean I'm planning: I'm measuring. (And the map is indeed in the ECMWF model).

So, please consider refining this, and/or having a separate measurement widget that is independent of planning routes.

For bonus points, it would be nice to have:

• Raw radar - no interpolation.

• Tracking to estimate the time of arrival of precipitation at a point on the map.

Thanks!
