@blahdi Click on Reported wind bubbles to get information on weather stations shown by Windy. For example this one is the weather station of Renton municipal airport. However in the neighbourhood of Seattle there are a lot of MADIS weather stations. These are personal weather stations and giving sometime wrong wind speeds. https://community.windy.com/topic/7582/windy-launches-observation-vs-forecast

@Gkikas-LGPZ said in why is there a negative temperature in Satellite view?: temperatures of cloud tops. With the picker you can see the temperature, if it is less than -33C (-27 F). By default, Windy "colorize" temps less than -27F (dark blue That makes sense. But, How do u use the temperature of cloud tops? i.e. what temperature range implies what weather effect on the ground in general?

I understood - I guess we are showing thunder symbol and color in windy in these conditions due to graphic limitations, rather than due to a meteorological standard. Hence, it will be confusing to a layman (not weather expert) like me. Anyways, something to explore improving in future (no rush). .thank u.

@Gkikas-LGPZ - It looks like the Web site URL is different for different regions (local weather), but all of them are linked if u start at https://www.weather.gov/.

@JRep65 Pls see the example above. I use windy for mountain weather, and not for cities. Re: Cities: Major cities should be way easy in most cases - u don't even need a county or state or even country info. Small/Minor cities - probably have duplicate names, but i never search for them and hence don't know how many duplicates are there.

I have same problem. Only 2 favs are visible... what's wrong?
