@Polina-Nozdrina This an excellent addition to Windy, thank you guys So Much for your hard work here!

The Radar+ layer is incredibly useful as it combines the weather radar and satellite layers ~something I was constantly switching in between to get a better understanding of approaching storms in my area ... or also watching in other parts of the world! :) From a Technical point of view it appears to be working really well and have been using it more and more often ~ and the tools to switch between layers (and change the spectrum) all being available under the timeline toolbar is a great touch. REally enjoying this feature, Great work!

The historical archive feature I've yet to try and am excited to as this is something I've personally always hoped to have available! ~ I can't wait to try this out! :D

Fantastic! Thank you again ~ em :D

@roberto-barrera Hola Roberto, en qué población te encuentras? Yo por lo menos encuentro la app bastante fiable pero hay veces que hay que mirar a más que el simple pronostico como por ejemplo el radar y el satélite en tiempo real ...
Para el pronóstico depende en que zona vives además ... por ejemplo, en Europa hay varios modelos que puedes comparar, la más fiable parece ser la ECMWF pero hay más modelos cómo la ICON y Meteoblue (quería añadir un pantallazo pero el sistema no me deja ... encontrarás los varios modelos en la parte baja de la pantalla cuando hayas dado con los pronósticos de tu zona)

Saludos! emm

@idefix37 yes, obvious at it sounds I never made the connection between your providers at Windy for live radar and satellite and the national weather services for each country ... I could see the national weather services displayed as I zoomed in and out of a country but hadn't realised that they also provided the live data! :D ...
ok! so I've found a note at the bottom of the page of the Aemet website about radar outages which might occur across Spain. It explains what's happening here and it might help to explain to anyone else who may have a similar question as to why the weather radar displays "No Data" over regions of Spain for an extended period of time :

Nota:
AEMET está procediendo a la ampliación, renovación y modernización de su red de radares dentro del Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia del Gobierno de España financiado con los fondos aprobados por el Consejo Europeo del 21 de julio de 2020, para hacer frente a las consecuencias de la pandemia internacional provocada por la COVID-19. La instalación de los nuevos equipos va precedida del acondicionamiento de las actuales infraestructuras. Durante la ejecución de cada acondicionamiento se prevé un periodo de desconexión del equipo radar para evitar posibles daños y permitir el acondicionamiento. La ausencia de datos del radar desconectado tiene impacto en la información usada para la prestación de servicios de AEMET, las consecuencias son similares a los apagados durante los mantenimientos preventivos o correctivos pero de mayor duración. Esta ausencia de datos de un radar desconectado se cubre con los radares operativos contiguos excepto pequeñas zonas que tendrá una falta de cobertura de radares contiguos. En las zonas de posible falta de cobertura está disponible la información satelital y la red de detección de descargas para las tareas de vigilancia meteorológica.

The installation of the new equipment is preceded by the conditioning of the current infrastructures. During the execution of each conditioning, a period of disconnection of the radar equipment is foreseen to avoid possible damages and allow conditioning. The absence of data from the disconnected radar has an impact on the information used for the provision of AEMET services, the consequences are similar to shutdowns during preventive or corrective maintenance but of longer duration. This absence of data from a disconnected radar is covered by the contiguous operational radars, except for small areas that will have a lack of coverage of contiguous radars. In areas of possible lack of coverage, satellite information and the discharge detection network are available for meteorological surveillance tasks.

@mates-dolda Great job! Thank you guys for all your hard work!

Update : Ok, it's working again :)

Thank you :) :) :)

Hi, I'm having the same problem and as Rodfl has explained, this seemed to start since the last update.

I'm using latest Firefox browser with Mac OS. The progress bar remains stuck to the last time viewed although I have it open on a tab with my laptop active. So, when I go back to the 'Windy' tab, I have to move the progress bar manually or reload the page to see the current / up-to-date view. ~ Using Radar+ mostly though ... could this be an issue with the Beta?

Edit: Sorry, just to clarify, The view is frozen to 'x' minutes/etc time ago (when last visited), so there is no animation with the satellite, radar or lightening unless moved manually or refreshed.

Many Thanks

@idefix37 ah! so it's Aemet that's the provider for this region, that makes sense, seems obvious now, thank you! :)
Ok, I've just visited their website and found this result for the regional radar for Valencia which displays "Radar en sustitción" over the whole area .... The radar is being replaced or substituted?

My original question was is there a way that you can contact the provider to chase this up? .... Perhaps now knowing who the provider is, perhaps I could also give that a try!

Thank you for your help!
em :)

Hi
I've been hoping that the weather radar over the Valencian region of Spain would be functional again by now, as it's been displaying "no data" for around a week, but it's still offline.
I think it's something to do with your provider? Would it be possible to chase this up?

Many Thanks,
em :)

@roberto-barrera Hola Roberto, en qué población te encuentras? Yo por lo menos encuentro la app bastante fiable pero hay veces que hay que mirar a más que el simple pronostico como por ejemplo el radar y el satélite en tiempo real ...
Para el pronóstico depende en que zona vives además ... por ejemplo, en Europa hay varios modelos que puedes comparar, la más fiable parece ser la ECMWF pero hay más modelos cómo la ICON y Meteoblue (quería añadir un pantallazo pero el sistema no me deja ... encontrarás los varios modelos en la parte baja de la pantalla cuando hayas dado con los pronósticos de tu zona)
