Thanks for your explanation

I totally forgot the detailed view functionality. This helps a lot. Thank you very much!

Thanks for your reply.
Okay I understand.
Yes sometimes I'm using windy for flights but this time I was just playing around.

I'm actually waiting for some wind to wind surf. The switch from colored background to outdoor map feels just a bit too early, despite no more information can be displayed.
E.g. I want to analyze the wind at lake como at Domaso

The Domaso label isn't even shown at this zoom level. Zooming in is therefore intuitive

Next zoom level is already shown with outdoor map

It's not a big thing, but switching to outdoor map one or two zoom levels later would be nice. At least for me 😉

Hello,
I'm requesting a feature to prevent the map from automatically switching to the outdoor map background at high zoom levels. When viewing layers like the wind map, the colored background is a critical visual aid, as it provides more context than just the wind particles.
Please add an option to disable the auto switch.
This provides a much better wind information:

The wind particles alone are not very helpful

@jarihj unfortunately no. And I don't think it's something we can fix. It seems to be a software issue.

@Suty, I didn't notice it, but you are right. Zooming in Radar+ works like a charm! Smooth and accurate! Every other layer I´ve tested has the zooming error.

Hi,

When zooming in Windy on my Windows 11 computer using the mouse wheel (Chrome 134.0.6998.178), each wheel tick results in 4-6 zoom steps on the map. My Windows mouse wheel settings are configured for one row per tick. The issue sometimes temporarily resolves if I change the mouse wheel settings while Windy is open, but it returns after switching to another window and back to windy.

Same behavior with microsoft edge browser
