Hi,

Can I suggest including the swell period in the Waves alert?

The parameters to set for an upcoming swell should be swell size, swell direction & swell period. Swell size and period and similarly important when trying to discern how a swell will impact a coastline.

For example, a 2m swell @ 7sec hitting the surfcoast of Victoria, Australia will be junk, whereas a 2m swell at 16sec will be great. And if we look at the goldcoast a 2m @ 7sec swell will be excellent.

The period is important and should be included to filter out the wheat from the chaff.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks windy for providing a great service.

Now that there is a premium service has there been any consideration or are there any future plans to provide historical data?

Agreed. And bring back period chart too pleas.

So what is the grid resolution? Windy still says GFS @ 22km but isn’t FV3 @ 13km?

So is windy now running FV3 GFS?

As far as I'm aware the GFS in windy is stuck on 06z. So I would say no windy isn't reflecting the FV3 upgrade. Maybe someone @windy can provide some more info?

Hi, just want to check in on progress? Is this something still in the works?

I, and I'm sure others, would be happy to pay a monthly subscription if it gave access to historic data.

Wondering the same thing. What happened to the wave period layer?

+1 on archive data, I probably use it more than forecast data.

Looking forward to getting historical data back. One of the best functions of windytv
