@Filip_K
Thanks for coming back. The altitude was correct. JFYI, the temps seem to be working fine now. I'm not sure what happened, but I haven't seen anything strange today. I'll keep an eye out. :)

RE: Air quality hardware
@Suty Sorry. I just realized you have to go to Menu, then down toward the bottom it says Air Quality Stations. You add them to your map or pin it.

RE: Air quality hardware
@Suty Sure. Just go to Windy . com (ha) go to the air quality index in Menu and there they are. Zoom into Salt Lake City until you see the street map and you'll see what I see. There are private monitors everywhere. I know exactly where each of these are and most are at people's houses. Click the individual monitor and it tells who or what is broadcasting.

RE: Air quality hardware
@Suty Hi. There are many private monitors in our city, individuals, public buildings, houses where people live next to trailheads in the hills. These all show in Windy. Our air in the winter is so bad that I check it all the time to know where to take my dogs. I just zoom into our city and they all show up. I just don't know what equipment they use. I could knock on doors I suppose. I also want one that can measure CO for my own benefit if not on the net.

Air quality hardware
How does one acquire or choose air quality sensor hardware that can be reported to Windy or published to the Internet? Doing a general Internet search there's a lot of basic sensors, but it's very difficult to find something complete that includes CO concentrations. When CO is included it very general. CO is a real issue here in our valley. Even the very expensive equipment seem to show little or no CO data, CO2 yes, CO not much.
Anyone have any suggestions? -

RE: Temps across US are far off
One more bit of data.
When going to the site the forecast model is ECMWS and the temps are far off. When I change to ICON or later models it refreshes something and the temps are correct. Switching back to ECMWS the temps stay correct. I have to switch models then return to get a correct reading.Not that I'll be hearing back from anyone about this, but I'll offer up my issue and Windy can decide if my experience is worth their time.

RE: Temps across US are far off
I've narrowed the problem down. My phone app shows the temps perfectly. Using my laptop and internet browser the temps are from very off to insanely off. I've deleted the windy cookie and re-logged in, but the problem remains. At least my phone is correct, but I prefer to use my laptop for wider scope and visual clarity.
I can't figure this out and I would like to. I know it was not -22 below 0 F. in Portland Oregon yesterday and right now in Salt Lake City it's 92 F which my phone agrees with, but my laptop says 82 and the temperature flag says 71. The timeline is correct and I'm using ECMWF although all sources are also incorrect.
Please help if you can. Thanks.MX Linux (Debian), Firefox 139.0.4
I'd like to add that this is a new problem. It wasn't this way last week.

RE: Temps across US are far off
Update post:
On second edit: The temps are 30 to 50 degrees lower than true temps. Temps east of Portland Oregon showed -22 in one check. I'll add a screenshot.

Temps across US are far off
It's 101 degrees F here in Salt Lake City UT but the map says 62. I know it's in the 110s in Phoenix and 90 in Portland Oregon but the map says 95 and 50 respectively.
This issue is on the temperature map. The Satellite map is correct.
