I agree. Water vapor imagery is super useful. And NOAA provides it. Please add it to the sat image options. Thanks.

Isobars are one of the most important elements when viewing weather. Please allow a setting to have them ALWAYS ON. And please move the switch to a more convenient place... like at the top of the layers list or onscreen all the time. (Referring to the website version.)

This has been requested by others for years...

Thank you.

@idefix37 Thanks for the reply and sorry for the long time offline. We are cruising and away from internet quite a bit.

I'm not convinced of your explanation as waves from different wave trains do not create a single wave train that is a combination of the speed/direction of the separate waves (the way apparent wind is a combination of the wind created by a moving boat as well as the true wind over the earth.

A 3 meter swell with a a 1 meter wave height from a different direction creates waves that cross and sometimes add and sometimes subtract in height.

If the waves row is simply adding the swell to the wind waves then it is completely useless data as that just isn't how waves work. And the direction is certainly wrong.

I really have no idea what the "Waves" row is referring to in the screen shot above. Can anyone explain?
Very confused.
Thanks,
Bruce

Notice wave hgt in attached screenshot. My understanding is that waves are wind waves as opposed to swell. There is no way waves are this height with hardly any wind from a different direction. I am in this location and am observing conditions also.

Thanks.
