@TomSlavkovsky The user just has to adjust them by hand anyway after the app opens, so no savings. Or are you saying most users are happy looking at the defaults? If so they would also not try to set a preferred startup configuration either.

Ah! I get it. That's what happens when there is only one webcam in my vicinity.

On Twitter, "?" brings up a list of keyboard shortcuts. Saves a lot of bytes,

OK. (But perhaps do like the Flightradar24 app, remembering the previous zoom through thick and thin (all manner of restarts, powerdowns, etc.)

It may be 3D if one wants to look at the whole world.

But I was just wanting to look at just e.g., Taiwan,
https://www.windy.com/-Weather-radar-radar?radar,23.546,119.020,9
and I saw the 3D button and expected something like Google Earth where I can
tilt the view etc.

So for smaller areas it is just still 2D.

@idefix37 It turns out the "suspend alert for some time" button is only available if one clicks on the link sent to one's mailbox. Otherwise for me it the pencil is just a "rename" link, like the last pencil in your image, the one that you didn't put a red arrow next to.

I just installed the Android app, and my very first impression is I can't find the instructions.

In fact I now notice the original "pizza pie" in the image indeed has eight slices, apparently trying to express the same thing
(that a slice pointing north is called "S"(outh), etc.)

• Visit https://www.windy.com/-Rain-thunder-rain?rain,23.790,120.624,8
• Hit keyboard→→→→... to advance time three hours at a time.

You will observe that for major storm blobs one can follow the logic of how they travel.

But for anything less, it is: how did cloud A jump to point B? Etc.

Therefore we see that three hour jumps are just too wide.

One hour jumps are needed to keep the cloud movement logic recognizable. P.S., no I am not "overly zoomed in for my own good."

The site does a super job with the little wind arrows. Now time to fix up jerky weather blob (cloud) movement.

@Yves70 That's too bad. Each time I start up I have to zoom in thousands of miles. I guess whoever set the defaults lives in a larger country or uses some regional approach to looking at weather. Alas, there is no "one size fits all."

OK, I did (logged out):

1. Browse windy.com
2. Click "3D".

Now I am looking at some kind of planetarium. I just see a lot of stars, no matter how I rotate the screen with the mouse.

It may be 3D if one wants to look at the whole world.

1. Visit https://www.windy.com/-Weather-radar-radar?radar,23.546,119.020,9
2. Move the view to the northeast. Confirm the the URL bar updates.
3. Click on one of the animals.
4. Click on one of the time spans 4h, 12h, etc.

OK now we have got everything just right to share with our boss.

So we copy the URL and send it to her.

But all she sees is the URL from stage 2.

1. Visit https://www.windy.com/-Weather-radar-radar?radar,23.546,119.020,9
2. Click on the play button.
3. Click on it again. The animation finally starts.

@korina (Will be solved when https://community.windy.com/topic/17051/allow-making-favorite-more-noticiable is solved.)

Here "Nanshi Village" looks like it is the name attached to the yellow heart... unless one has eagle eyes.

https://www.windy.com/-Satellite-satellite?satellite,24.127,120.473,11

I wish there was a way to make my Favorite (that vague yellow ♡ southwest of the "N") more noticeable.

Even the camera in the southeast corner is 10 times more noticeable.

@korina
Rather inconsistent that if only shows up in some layers.
Also doesn't Find My Location ignore the Qingfu Village I set? Also it wouldn't be as bad if I were able to put something in the URL to do what I want. E.g.,
https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=24.18169&mlon=120.86617#map=17/24.18169/120.86617
puts a marker where told.

https://www.windy.com/-Satellite-satellite?satellite,24.127,120.473,11 on the other hand gives no marker.

If I visit https://www.windy.com/-Weather-radar-radar?radar,23.546,119.020,9 I get the "IP location" marker, no matter what.
