That worked. Quite byzantine and a bit counter-intuitive.
Thanks!

Weather News articles are great.
Please allow Weather News articles to be read full screen. The graphics are an important part of the content, and the sidebar presentation does not allow the reader to fully study the graphics and link ideas to the text. The ability to save articles, or especially links or web bookmarks for articles, would be great. And an index of all past articles will become valuable as Windy builds this great library. Thank you.

Very good. I enjoy these informative weather education articles.
Please make it easier to read these articles full screen, rather than only side bar. That would help in reading and graphics.
Thank you.

Hurricane Tracker is great. I suggest:

1. Set initial zoom to 5. This is far enough out to see where hurricane has been and is forecast to go. Current initial zoom level 8 is so close in that geographical context is lost.
2. At zoom levels below 7, farther out, remove the info boxes. They really obscure graphical information. Have info boxes appear at 7 and closer in.

Cruising on a 35' sailboat in the SW Pacific, ECMWF is my go-to model. When GFS upgraded, I began compare the two regularly. Very useful in the 5-7 day windows. Even before that upgrade, I would use the compare feature when planning departure windows for ocean passages. Also, the Waves feature is very useful for sailors, most especially comparing wind base to wind gusts - indicating the volatility of the weather system, in addition to the more detailed wave info. Swell period under 9 seconds is very uncomfortable. Thanks for a great Windy!

@petra-pik Yes. That did work. Thank you.

@petra-pik I wholeheartedly support options to toggle on-off video and/or photo images, like highway cameras, to save data downloads over preciously expensive, finite, and often shaky internet connections. I use Windy extensively for voyage planning by sail, often from locations where internet is not yet first-world hi-bandwidth.

New favorite is not a named place. I selected and saved using Latitude and Longitude. So far, so good. I then edit to name the favorite: N Minerva Reef. The named favorite shows up when in the edits list, but not on the main menu 'quick pick' list. Only the lat-lon shows up there.
Is it possible to have the home page quick list of favorites match the edited names?

Excellent. I don't mind the zoom restrictions for now. I find 3D is most informative viewing wide scale phenomena, e.g. polar centered view of 500 hPa with geopotential height graphics. A great visualization of Rossby waves.

I continue to appreciate this tool. It is proving to be very useful for visualizing weather along a sailing passage. It would be very cool if the weather detail bar as shown in the distance planner were also available for kml, gpz, GeoSON routes.

As more routes are added, and I predict there will be thousands as others discover it, a search tool would be very helpful. Maybe search or filter uploaded routes by user? Or by those routes applicable to the current screen view, i.e. take the lat/lon rectangle from the screen corners and filter for the uploaded routes which intersect that rectangle.

Thank you.

Expert mode seems to not be saving to my profile. I must turn it on each time I open Windy.

Very good. A great addition to the distance planner.
As a sailor, I would prefer wind direction to default to absolute, or north up. But not a priority, once I know how to make setting.
I like the default forecast all along the route defined for one specific moment that I choose on timeline. Moving forecast along the route depends on accurate guess of vmg, which of course changes with wind speed and sea state and accurate boat polars. Very complex and maybe best left to weather routing apps such as Predictwind and qtvlm.

@Francfo Check out qtvlm, open source weather router. You can save grib file scenarios, run alternative routings, and save them all.

User @pavelneuman shared kml file with you Hurricane Dorian (The NHC's Adv. #29)

This is great.
Please continue this overlay of NHC track and forecast cone. Can it be automated for all named storms, hurricanes and cyclones? It really helps me understand and visualize the storm, especially when other layers are turned on, such as wind accumulation.

Very good. I've been waiting for a way to save and load routes from the distance and planning tool, and/or other gpx routes.
For next rev. take a look at 180 Meridian and routes that cross it. Please see...

Thank you

Please consider adding a bolded line at 5640 meter geopotential height on the 5000 hPa (mb) charts. This line is important for marine navigation and weather routing because most storms track 300 to 600 nautical miles north or south (towards the poles) of this line. See: https://vos.noaa.gov/MWL/dec_08/milibar_chart.shtml

ECMWF model has not updated for ~17 hours, as of 12:45 pm 10 July, New Zealand standard time.

Okay, now I can see data for NZ stations in the right hand side bar. I don't see the "E" or "F" symbols for Ebb or Flood current at that station. I don't see the up or down arrows for high or low tides at that station. I see the boat icons only. I do see the symbols at stations along the US west coast, e.g. Columbia River entrance. Thank you.

Great Idea. As of March 3, I see lots of little boat icons that correspond with NZ tide stations.
But I see no data when I click on any particular tide station: no tide table, no harmonic graph, and no current info either.

Boat icon is the same as was used for currents. Will these now be displayed together? Or are currents to be abandonded?
