Re: Wind barbs

In the attached image in a planning route it shows an option for the wind barbs. I don't understand the three options. Shouldn't the options be "to" and "from" as in the wind is blowing "to" or the wind is blowing "from"? The "north up" does not always coincide with the way the particles are moving but seems to be the closest. Could you explain these three options?

It would be extremely helpful if the little white dot on a route was a wind pointer instead. I use an web site "DeepZoom" that has that feature. But they only use the GFS weather model.

Thank You

When using theses options with a route, on the route line there is a white dot representing your position along the route for a specific time. It would be helpful if that dot could be a wind pointer instead of the dot. In addition if that pointer could be small, medium, large. It would be helpful for vision challenged people or conditions. For the boat option the tides would be helpful at the bottom. Love this app!

Re: Wind arrows direction

Why do the arrows point away from the wind instead of where it’s coming from? ie: A west wind is coming from the west.
