I think he means the one we just clicked on to read this post. I agree - once read it should go away.

I would LOVE to receive alerts as push notifications!!!

Also, it would be great to set notifications for your 'current location' - not just for specific locations - so that as you move around alerts are relevant to where you actually are (i.e. when travelling).

Thanks for an absolutely amazing app!!!!

Currently, lightning is combined with the radar layer. It would be great if lightning could be made an optional, standalone layer - just like pressure isolines - so that it could be combined with any other layer, such as radar, satellite, etc. This would be especially useful now that you have provided several other excellent thunderstorm tracking tools such as the infrared satellite later.

Would this at all be something you would consider?

Thank you very much for fixing this issue - v28.0.3 looks great on the iPhone 12 Pro!!!!

Also, thank you for the new iOS 14 widget!

Keep up the great work... 👍

Thank you for removing the banner!

Those losing their minds about the use of “girls” need to chill out. Windy is from Europe, where they still use common sense in regards to language - unlike here in North America, where many read into and sensationalize the smallest nuances of words to make a statement. There is no infringement on equality or rights to see here... move on.

@Ondřej-Šutera yes, turning that option back on fixes the issue; however, I prefer to have it selected off, so I’m glad to hear a fix is being worked on.

I use English language as well.

As the other users have reported, this wasn’t an issue until the latest update.

@Korina here’s a good example of how combining the lightning layer with the satellite IR layer is helpful in locating thunderstorms. This screenshot is from another product we use in the aviation world. I’d love to be able to get the same info from Windy’s far superior satellite resolution and interface!

@Korina I agree, the banner needs to go. It’s fine if it’s there initially, but should disappear as soon as the article is read.

The new version just released fixed the issue!! Thanks, @Korina!

I have a followup question/suggestion to my previous suggestion of a standalone lightning layer:

Would it be possible to integrate satellite-based lightning data to extend the availability of lightning data to areas on the globe outside of radio range, i.e. the middle of the Pacific Ocean?

@Korina

Bump……..

The time range posted for a wind warning does not seem to coincide with the times in the warning description, nor the actual forecasted winds. Are the times posted in UTC? See attached screenshots.

Cheers,

Chris

Seems to be fixed now in the latest version.

Thanks, @Ondřej-Šutera!

@Ondřej-Šutera not sure whether today’s release was intended to include the fix, but just fyi this behaviour is still occurring.

@Ondřej-Šutera yes, turning that option back on fixes the issue; however, I prefer to have it selected off, so I’m glad to hear a fix is being worked on.

Same thing happens to me. Clicking on ‘home’ icon, map goes to correct location. As soon as you tap on the 4-day weather at the top, the map centres on another location to the south. Same if you go to a favourite location or search for a location. Happens for all cities.

@inAjet said in Windy brings a real-time global lightning strikes tracking:

Would you consider adding the ability to control the lightning layer separately from the radar/satellite layer? There may be times when you want to de-clutter the display and view radar/satellite data only, or view lightning data only to quickly locate the most active weather.

Any thoughts on this, @Ondřej-Šutera?

@Ondřej-Šutera sorry for the delay in getting back to you - for some reason I don't receive notifications on replies to my thread, even though I'm subscribed to get them (another issue I'm trying to get to the bottom of)! Yes, I was stilled logged into my account. I will say that this does not happen 100% of the time when using the app in the US, but it has occurred more than a few times now.

Hi @Ondřej-Šutera, this was not after a fresh install. I landed in the US, turned on my phone, opened Windy, and it had switched to °F all on its own.
