RE: Timeline does not show correct daytime / night time when approaching daylight saving change over
@idefix37 @Ondřej-Šutera Yep so the timeline shows correct after the time changes, but that has never really been my point. My point is that the timeline shows incorrectly in the days leading up to the time change as shown in my screenshots above.
You might ask why is this important. For me as a pilot it is important to know when dawn and dusk is as it has to do with licensing etc, so when I am planning a trip I use Windy to see how the weather is looking several days in advance of the departure and having the visual representation of dawn / dusk on the timeline is therefore important, and a great aid. Some airports are not equipped with lighting systems so it would a problem if planning a flight where you are expect to land or takeoff very close to the dusk / dawn period, only to find out the actual dusk / dawn time was an hour before and you can no longer fly into or depart from that airport at the expected time.
My question is, will the Windy team look at fixing the timeline so that dawn and dusk times are represented correctly when the timeline includes dates which are both pre and post a time change for the chosen forecast location, or is this something that Windy is not concerned about?

@Ondřej-Šutera So the issue is live now. You can see in the timeline that consideration to the time change happening on Sunday is not reflected here (dawn and dusk are respectively an hour later):

@Korina Any update regarding this as when I look at the timeline we still have the same problem. Clocks are due to change on Sunday at 02:00 but sunset times are not reflected in the timeline.

@Korina Hi, at the time I was in Oslo, however I noticed that the problem was not specific to Oslo or Norway, but other locations in Europe where I was looking at forecasts.

@idefix37 Norway is utc + 2 during daylight saving time, so when daylight saving time ends on the Sunday it should adjust the timeline to correctly represent day and night, so my expectations would be daylight Starting 1 hour earlier and ending 1 hour earlier.

@Korina My apologies for the late feedback but I didn’t get any notification. I am located in Norway and the timeline shown was for a local town here. I tested several other locations in the same time zone and they also showed incorrectly.

When I look at the forecast timeline as shown below:
The daytime and night time seem to be showing incorrect for Sunday onwards after the daylight saving time stops
