    • RE: Persistent Radar Artifacts

      @vortexya Thanks for letting us know.
      This happens when our primary radar source has outage and we start using secondary source. Both sources appear on the map for a while. This will be fixed when we release our new radar processing pipeline soon.

    • RE: Radar

      @_AVX_ Raw data or simple images are both good. Aviation portal you mentioned (https://aviation.weathersa.co.za/#showSAWSRadar) is only for aviators so we can't legally use it. Even if we could, there is a lot of clutter in the images provided there (city labels, land, storms outlines and storm forecast outlines, ...). Long story short, the clearer data the better.
      Other link (http://www.weathersa.co.za/home/radarst) only shows storms, not radar scans directly. That also greatly complicates incorporating the data to windy.

      If you know of any other source or someone in SAWS/AfriGIS who might be more willing to cooperate, feel free to let us know. We'll be very happy to add South Africa coverage.

    • RE: Current data are temporarily not available

      Unfortunately, Copernicus prolonged data outage. No exact date is given, only that data should be back by end of December. We will monitor the situation and get forecast back ASAP

    • RE: Current data are temporarily not available

      @Skip-Freedom According to Copernicus, forecast data is expected to be back up and running by next Tuesday; on 2022-12-13

    • RE: Am I missing something.

      @idefix37 Yes, pretty much, that's what I do. Models provide data in a grid that is, as you said, quite coarse. All model data are then bilineary interpolated to fill the "gaps" in the grid, including "model elevation" (orography). "Real elevation" data have much denser grid and are thus much more accurate but they are in no way incorporated in the values. "Real elevation" is only displayed in forecast detail and sounding

    • RE: Am I missing something.

      @Hanz-2018 You are absolutely right, that is quite misleading. Model elevation (elevation that model considers to be surface) is unfortunately only displayed in the sounding, which can be accessed by right click or long tap like so:
      Screenshot_20221110_062318.png
      There you can see that model elevation at place with real elevation 900m is around 1037m
      Screenshot_20221110_062425.png
      and model elevation at Mount Noir peak (where real elevation is around 1930m) is even less - 1023m. You can then read temperature at desired altitude directly from the sounding (see below) which gives 6C in the example

    • RE: lagging up dates on the hurricane tracker

      @JoeBFLL there was problem with parsing non-standard timestamp in the advisory. Bug has been fixed, monitoring adjusted and future updates should work fine from now on. Thank you for your report

      @Arctic-Octopus Do you have any URL or source we could look into? We might consider adding it in the future. Thank you

    • RE: lagging up dates on the hurricane tracker

      @JoeBFLL Latest hurricane position, wind speed and pressure is now obtained from NOAA advisory so it should be as up-to-date as possible.

      Thank you again for pointing this out to me

    • RE: lagging up dates on the hurricane tracker

      I see. The *_best_track.kmz (which is our primary source for hurricane tracks) is unfortunately updated quite late. As you mention, around 3h late. I'll look into this to make sure we get as up-to-date data as possible. Thank you for noticing this

    • RE: lagging up dates on the hurricane tracker

      I probably found where the delay appears. Last update from NOAA (https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gis-at.xml) is for 6AM (UTC) but was published 3 hours later at 9AM (UTC):

    • RE: lagging up dates on the hurricane tracker

      Right now, last update for Fiona is at 6AM UTC:

      NHC (https://www.nhc.noaa.gov) gives the same information (see upper right corner for update time):

      Where do you see the delay?

    • RE: Rain accumulation: 1m this is equal 1000mm, not 100mm

      @Wojciech-Dobrowolski The scale is non-linear and pink color in default scale corresponds to 500mm. See color settings for rain accumulation below

    • RE: Wind speed from m/h to Knots

      @mgp-0 Of course one can! On desktop, you can either click the scale in the bottom-right corner or go to settings. Going to settings is the only way in the mobile app.

    • RE: wind slider only toggle between surface<>FL450 (13,5km)

      @balloni55 Because altitude slider shares space with layer selector column on the right, you might be able to make more space for the slider by removing some unused layers. Layers in layer selector can be removed by going to More layers...

    • RE: wind slider only toggle between surface<>FL450 (13,5km)

      @balloni55 I was able to replicate your issue on 1920x1080 screen when I set up browser zoom to 130% (see bottom right corner on the screenshot) Screenshot_20220830_094937.png
      Is it perhaps same in your browser? Have you tried changing browser zoom?

    • RE: NEMS, Arome 2.5km

      @bibi4noi Hello, I've checked the data from Meteo-France (provider of AROME model) but it doesn't cover Hungary (see below)
      Screenshot_20220830_075210.png
      Maybe OMSZ has AROME source that is not public thus not available for easy use.

      Regarding NEMS: it is model provided by Meteoblue. Althought windy.com doesn't provide NEMS in forecast detail, it provides global Meteoblue coverage, which gives quite similar forecast.
