    • Difference between Cloud Base/Tops values and "VFR" graph appearance

      I use Windy Premium and load each upcoming flight track as a "FAVORITE" using the "VFR" setting.
      As I look across the timeline it shows cloud formations in various shades of grey (usually darker shades near the terrain). The banner showing numerical values for cloud tops and cloud bases often suggest thinner layers (1700 and 500 = 1200 thick) than may be inferred by viewing the dark areas (often appearing up to 5000 feet thick). This is really important in the case of subfreezing conditions.
      I assume that I should trust the numbers more than the visual appearance of the grey shading, but it would be helpful if the two representations were in better agreement.

    • "Weather Warning"

      Can you tell me where to find the "Weather Warnings" indicated by the four horizontal bars in the line above "Cloud Tops"?

    • VFR Profile View of Route

      When a flight path takes over just a few hours, the VFR Profile view extends off the page to the right.
      If you click on the view you can drag it to see that section.
      I would prefer to see the entire flight time in one view since, as you drag the departure time, conditions change over the entire route.
      Thanks
