@korina The main Canadian Radar URL is:

@korina URL for the Carvel (Edmonton) Radar : https://weather.gc.ca/map_e.html?layers=radar&zoom=-1¢er=53.53,-113.49

@korina I was wondering the same thing. The new more capable weather radar at Carvel is up and operating now and is available from the Canadian weather web page but I see that ForeFlight is also displaying it now so I assume that the API for it is again functioning with current radar data.

That's great. Thanks for pointing that out.

One layer as a pilot I would love to see added is an indication of the air temperature-dew point spread. This gives a critical indication of the possibility of airframe icing. I know that this can be derived by looking at the temperature layer and then switching to the dew point layer and then looking at planned flight altitude relative to the freezing level. However it would be a lot more convenient to be able to quickly look at the spread. This is a feature in ForeFlight which is very useful.

If you select the Winds layer and move the Altitude slider to say FL010 and then select the Clouds layer it does not change from the Winds layer to the Clouds layer. Have to first reset the Altitude to Surface.

@marienka This is still an issue. I can set the units for Cloud Base to feet on the desktop web version [Windows 10 / Firefox 62.0.3 (64bit)] while logged in. And while logged in on my Android version (9) it will always only show metres. I have tried relaunching the Android app and even flushing the Android cache but nothing changes. There are other layers in the App where the units can be changed, why not add this?
