Great! Could you also please please express swell angles in increments of 1 degree (221°, 222°, etc) rather than skipping to the next "round number" (220, 230). All your models DO supply the exact degree, so there is no reason to fudge the numbers. I've been asking for this simple for at least two years now :(

Swell angle needs to be expressed in increments of 1 degree (223, 224, 225,...) and not 10 degrees (220, 230,...)posted in Your Feedback and Suggestions
Hello there!
I've requesting this improvement for about a year now, and every update I hope it's there, but no :(
Technically, this should be super easy, as Windy gets its swell data from the respective US and European agencies, and that data comes in steps of 1 degree (223, 224, 225, you get the idea). But then Windy for some reason rounds it up (or down?) to the nearest 10 (220, 230, 240). Around where I live and surf, a change in 10° is a huge difference, and it makes Windy pretty much unusable for swell forecast. Please, please, fix this.

Show swell angles in single degree incrementsposted in Your Feedback and Suggestions
Hi,
I'm a surfer who uses Windy because it conveniently tracks and shows (almost) everything I need: stormwinds far out in the ocean, the swells they cause, the tracks of these swells along great circle routes, my local wind conditions, etc. But there is ONE detail that really limits my use: why are swell angles shown only in 10º increments? For example, it's either 210º or 220º, but never 213º or 217º. And where I surf, there is a huge difference between waves arriving from 210º versus 220º, so I would appreciate if I could see a more precise angle. Cheers!
