If I clearly understand what you mean, you want to know the altitude of any location you point with the picker.
This altitude is given at right side of the local forecast table, you just need to swipe it.

Note that this layer with a medium resolution model, must be checked locally. Unfortunately in Canada this layer cannot be shown with a high resolution in Windy.
In addition the New snow layer and the local snow forecast are useful for ski resorts.

Yes, at Kanab, Utah, ECMWF model shows lower temperatures. HRRR is much better and Meteoblue for local forecast is probably the best (shown with Observation vs forecast feature with the reported temperature at weather station of Kanab municipal airport).
Fortunately ECMWF is not so bad everywhere.
Why at your location this model gives so bad temps forecasts? Difficult to say. The model altitude is 100m higher than the real altitude, it explains a part of the discrepancy. There are mountains near Kanab, so a model with higher resolution like HRRR gives better results. But considering the temperature forecast on the Utah map, ECMWF seems globally lower and this is difficult to explained

Hi, this weather station is not reporting since last Sunday.
Windy can’t do anything about it. Only the owner of this personal weather station can fix it.

Bonjour apparement votre abonnement Premium ne semble pas actif, sinon vous auriez le badge Premium à côté de votre username.

Setting the color scales is only available on desktop (website) or in the tablet app.
But not in the phone app. That’s probably the reason why you don’t find this setting if you try finding it on your phone.

@Matthew-Lutz
Windy does not works in offline mode. There is no way except taking screenshots or screenvideos.

@Astromathey

At a location select Meteogram to get a forecast of clouds altitude during next days.

Try with different models specially ICON-D2 if available for you.
But it is not sure you will see the low stratus in mountain due to temperature inversion in winter during anticyclonic periods.

To post a screenshot:

@Pichulonco
Just read my post above yours !

@pburns001
The cloud cover shows in some areas small dots with different colors. They are the areas where it is raining.
The color scale gives the rain intensity in these dotted areas. Reason why the color scale is in inches. It is not concerning the cloudiness it self.
Here with the rain rate in mm:

So it matches perfectly.

@Ömer-Kırcalı
As you focus only on this town name, if you set English map labels, you get Izmir even in Turkish language.

@RobertKay
Could you show screenshots at same time, with same model and same model update.

@luci83 said in The degrees and weather shown are not the real ones:

In Mutilva, Navarra Spain, it says sunny and it is all grey,

The ECMWF predict 97% cloudiness at 11h today, that’s not sunny:

And temperature forecast is 1°C

So there is no bug. And even when a weather model don’t predict exactly some parameter values such as temperature, wind or cloudiness, it is not a bug, just an inaccuracy. No need to post for that because Windy cannot do anything about this type of inaccuracy.
Which model are you using? There are 6 available in Spain. It is useful to compare them. Click Compare in local forecast table.

@김진걸
Just toggle 1h forecast:

Then if you want to keep it as a default setting, in Settings choose

@tsunami23
No, Windy does not display Surface Analysis maps, showing fronts, warm, cold or occluded. The reason for the lack of fronts has been explained very often here.
Example of Surface Analysis map:
https://www.met.ie/index.php/latest-reports/surface-analysis
Apart from fronts all the elements of Surface Analysis maps are available in Windy (isobars, pressure centers, temperature, precipitation areas….)

@F-Berbenni
You are right. As example, here is the 0°C isotherm altitude above the highest summits in the Alps shown by ICON-D2. And ECMWF with a coarser resolution displays quite the same map in Windy.

Freezing altitude (0°C altitude) at 3000m level seems inconsistent. At same location Airgram by same model displays the 0°C level at 850hPa (1500m asl approx.)

Another app shows a similar map by the same model. So it is due to the way how this model compute the iso-0°C.

I am not sure to understand clearly what you mean. So please clarify and show a screenshot.
