    • A better meteogram for light aviation?

      The meteogram (cross section of cloud heights along a timeline) is a really nice way to think about VFR flying, but the windy one isn’t useful for me at least.

      Light aircraft spend most of their time below 5000ft and that is just too squished on the graph to be any use.

      Could you expand the graph vertically and use a non linear y scale? Or linear in pressure not metres? Small height differences really matter close to the ground but much less at FL100+.

      Meteoblue have a nice one.

    • Event Weather

      I’d like to set a date and location, and easily see the forecast as the date approaches.

      As an example if I have a sailing regatta a week away, I check the forecast each morning over that week. Each time I have to find the location, set the model I like, scroll across the timeline.

      I’d like to be able to set: Plymouth Regatta, 12 Oct as a sort of temporary favourite, and jumpy to that forecast any time I like. It could also delete after the event.
