Un froid intense
Ce froid va s'accentuer concernant principalement l'est du pays avec des valeurs lundi matin pouvant plonger en dessous de 0°C
Il ne faut pas exagérer. Des températures en dessous de 0°C ça n’est pas un froid intense ! Juste un peu de fraîcheur, pas de quoi en faire des gros titres, ni d’ailleurs les quelques centimètres de neige prévus sur le Massif Central. C’est plutôt le manque de froid et de neige qui est à souligner pour l’Europe de l’Ouest.

This is the temperature of cloud tops

But if Windy need to make a post-treatment to the GRIB files before disseminating these data through the Internet, there is no chance to use the same App to visualize free raw GRIB files received by sat phone.
@cmarwine
To measure distances, just use the Distance&planning tool. Click on the RH button of your mouse or make a long press on screen in case you use the App.

Peut-être qu’un jour ils le feront?

Of course, as explained by the link I provided to you, you must modify the color scale on the website windy.com i.e. on a desktop. Then your modifications will be applied automatically to your phone app.
Windy offers you the possibility to modify the colors exactly as you wish by yourself. If you want a range of colors for the wind based only on shades of grey, you can. But do you think that if windy changed this color scale to a shade of grey it would please all the users of this application?
So do it yourself!

Personally I prefer the world in colors.
@johnckealy
On my side I would like to have a Geopotential height LAYER, not only isolines. Like you, I use the Geopotential isolines with the Temperature at same altitude. But that’s not so clear.
@lumpiluk
You can try my own settings for wind color scale. This scale is customized in such way that there is no similar color for different wind speed and lighter colors corresponds to light winds.

Or if you prefer just 2 colors, you can use a similar scale to my customized Pressure scale:
@Dilees said in Idea for Wind visualisation:
it could be expressed by the distance a particle travels in 'Short = 30 minutes', 'Long = 5 hours'.
With the current settings, it’s the opposite: a short vector means more time e.g 5 hours, a long vector less time e.g. 30 minutes, to cover the same distance.
As @Gkikas-LGPZ explains, the best solution to know the running time of a particle on a given distance is to use the Distance&planning tool.
