    • Show deviation from ISA for temperatures aloft

      It would be helpful for high-altitude flight planning to show the deviation from ISA when displaying temperatures aloft at FL180 and above. E.g. -55 C (ISA + 2).

      Thanks. Great tool you have here.

    • RE: Long-time Premium user, Safari Mac keeps losing my Premium status

      @Suty I think you must be right! In my iOS app it expires 02/2029 and in the browser it has Nov 23, 2025 at 04:00 PM. How should I resolve this? They are both associated with the same email address and username, interestingly.

      Honestly I don't even mind paying twice. It's a killer site. ; >

    • RE: Logging in - frequency and use of PW manager

      @nesro Thank you for the quick response.

      I'm using Safari 26.0.1 (latest) on macOS Tahoe 26.0.1 (latest). Unfortunately I can only see the overall cooke indication.

      What it might have to do with is that I have a (pinned) Windy session in a tab group tab and sometimes I open another session in another tab group.

      Re the Keeper log-in, their scraper is usually pretty good at finding the entry fields so I am guessing it is a URL issue. The Keeper entry is looking at https://www.windy.com and I'm thinking it isn't scanning the pop-up log-in dialog.

      Thanks. I always forget about Develop mode.

      I have partially solved the Keeper issue, by defining the email address and password fields as custom fields and changing the root url to https://www.windy.com/login, although it does appear that the dialog incorporates dynamic custom components (likely via the Svelte framework). It won't auto-fill but once the dialog is up I can get a manually-triggered fill to work.

    • Logging in - frequency and use of PW manager

      I have two issues with my Premium log-in on MacOS.

      1. A session should be more persistent. It seems I am having to log in every few days despite a continuous browser session.

      2. The log-in dialog seems opaque to password managers (e.g. Keeper, which is what I use). For better security you should encourage and enable the use of password managers and their inherent extremely secure passwords. Otherwise you are in effect encouraging the use of easy/poor passwords. Yes, I can open a separate session in Keeper and copy/paste passwords but this is extremely time-consuming and annoying. My banking sites certainly facilitate password manager use - so should you.

      Love the site for my aviation weather needs.

    • Long-time Premium user, Safari Mac keeps losing my Premium status

      Long-time Premium user, Safari Mac keeps losing my Premium status

      I'm a Premium subscriber. Recently, after being logged in for a couple days on Safari / MacOS (both latest), even though the site still shows me as logged in, it exhorts me to "Go premium," but, as I said, I already am. So it's not recognizing my Premium status.

      It's a PITA to have to log out, then back in to get me recognized as a Premium subscriber again (which it then does). This is relatively new behavior - it never used to do this. I have deleted the browser cookie; doesn't help.

    • Add forecast simulated NEXRAD

      I'd like to see forecast simulated NEXRAD under the Radar & Satellite quick menu. I currently use this viewer from the storm prediction center. It would be great to have that in Windy.

    • Display ISA deviation for temperatures aloft

      Re: Show deviation from ISA for temperatures aloft

      Well, it's been 6 years since I made this suggestion which would be very helpful for aviation users.

      Specifically:

      It would be helpful for high-altitude flight planning to show the deviation from ISA when displaying temperatures aloft at FL180 and above. E.g. -55 C (ISA + 2).

      Maybe make it an optional Setting under Temperature?
