@korina Cool. Any plans to show the United states radiation?

There are a few Plugins I always want to play with.

Is there a way to make it so they are always installed instead of adding them each time i launch my browser?

Thanks.

on the forecast for a location, dusk is shown along with Sunrise and Sunset.

But dawn is conspicuously missing.

When planning a photo shoot, I often map out the weather at a location and it's usually the case I'm trying to catch first or last light.

It would be great if you could add dawn (nautical twilight.) It would save me from having to look it up elsewhere.

I've been noticing that Windy's base map has amazing park trails.

Hiking and weather go hand-in-hand.

But when I use the app, i cannot get an updating location on where I am, so i can't take advantage of the cool map that's right before my eyes.

It would be great if I could zoom in and see myself on the trail and have it update in real time. Then, not only could I use that to help navigate, but with the radar layer on I could see approaching precipitation. A little arrow would be nice too, so I could see which way I was heading.

Seems like this would be a pretty straightforward improvement.

Hope you consider. This would give you a new way to promote your tool too. You could tout it as a tool to help you boat, hike, run, etc.

You'll notice here, that my position isn't on the map.

Note: I have given windy permission to use my exact location in the phones settings.

Just wanted to say I agree. This needs to be added. It's neat at first but unnecessary especially if you're looking at a large area.

@korina said in Wind Chill:

@jimerb Relative humidity is already available at https://www.windy.com/-Humidity-rh?rh,33.375,-22.220,3

yes but often sites compute a "real feel" temperature in much the same way as windchill.

80deg with 95% humidity feels hotter than 90 degrees with low humidity for example. The air's ability to evaporate sweat is inhibited because of the saturated air. So it feels hotter.

Re: Wind Chill

It's super cold in the United States and windy as heck right now.

It sure would be nice to have a wind chill layer.

This was recommended before but wanted to give it a bump...

@korina Awesome. A welcome feature.

I'd like to see a drag feature where i can move the actual hurricane by dragging my thumb over it on the screen.

Can you work on that?

LOL

There have been times when I would get circles emanating from lighting strikes on the radar layer to show the thunder as it travels. But that hasn't been happening for me as of late.

I go to an area with active lightning and as new strikes occur there are no thunder circles.

Why is this? Do i have to turn something on?

I use the desktop and IOS apps for ipad and iphone.

It would be really neat to see extreme weather Ensembles from the different predictive models for hurricanes.

I find it hard to find these and none have the savviness of Windy's visualization system.

Under the Extreme Forecast settings or maybe under the more layers down below (where the "pressure slider" is.

Same for me. All blank. iPhone 14 with latest iOS version

@Mayamacane I couldn't agree more, and while your at it add windchill since that's similar in cold weather.

These layers seem to be a matter of simple math based on the data that is there already.

I'm surprised it's not already a layer.

@idefix37 I see what your saying there but it looks like the forecast model is a footnote on the popup (since it's below the row) -- not a mark of which line is which.

So if i go into this a month from now (or first time users), I'm going to first have to try and figure out which row is actual and which row is forecast.

A more proper way to display this would be to have the label on the row -- just like you do when you're explaining it in the how-to section of the documentation. This eliminates the need to have to find documentation to get the question answered. There's tons of free space to be able to include the label as the popup only occupies a small part of the screen.

From Your documentation (why not just have this type of label on the row so you don't need the doc?):

Think ease of use please. I mostly use the website.

The "Observation vs Forecast" Feature is hard to read for causal users who don't use it that often. There are two rows but no indication which one is actual and which one is forecast.

I'm sure if you use it every day you'd remember but I won't and every time I go to use it, I'm going to have to figure it out all over again.

Labeling the rows seems like it would be super simple and handy.

@idefix37 Whoa. That's a neat feature. thanks.

On the weather radar I noticed brown colors that seemed to be producing a lot of lightning during animation.

They don't tend to move like the weather system.

What are they?

When looking at the satellite layer, the "Blue" type appears grey and the Visible type appears blue. It seems like the labels on these two types should be switched.
