@Suty

This again?

Why does your team insist on not listening to user feedback....specifically about gallery vs list view.
Why does your team insist on gallery view and screwing up the clean utilitarian user interface.

This is maddening.

A great option would be to allow the user to identify what they want.

1. enable/disable radar "forecast"
   • if enabled, animation can go through both actual radar and forecasted radar.
   • if disabled, eliminate the forecast data portion of the timeline, only showing the actual radar data.
2. ensure this user defined setting saves to the cloud

This option could be just like the 1h/3h forecast switch.

@Korina I think @evolab said it right and respectfully.
People are thrown off because we all had this magnificent product that provided a look fairly far into the future...we became dependent on it. Then one morning we log in and now it costs money. Sucks from the free users point of view - so I understand...though it would seem people could be a little better at communicating their frustrations lol

@Ondřej-Šutera Any chance you can allow users to choose between list and gallery view? Like you can on the website?
Just a thought

I would love to see the Canadian model data in Windy.
Here is a previous thread I could find discussing these data:

@burrelltb There is nothing I have found that is as easy to use and understand, visually pleasing, and has this much information at the users fingertips. They've truly done a fantastic job.
From my experience as a meteorologist, I've spent years searching for different websites and models to compare manually and all for a price. The ability to compare multiple forecast models yourself incredibly quickly and easily is amazing and shouldn't be taken for granted. Not to mention the integration of different data layers available is pretty outstanding.

Good Day,

I am writing to you to bring the concerns of many of your users to the forefront (again). With absolutely no word from the development team and seemingly no interest in hearing what we have to say, I feel it is necessary to voice my opinions on the new UI yet again.

I beg of you, PLEASE, listen to your user feedback. A lot of the v39 changes have only caused problems for users who utilize this powerful tool on a daily basis as professionals in our respective fields.

My personal opinion,
I DO NOT like the gallery view - the list view is compact, organized, easy to read and easy to use.
I DO NOT like the auto-zoom feature - I zoom out for a reason, and forcing me to keep zooming out is not a useful "feature".
I DO NOT like the crosshairs - pressing on the map to select a location, and moving the map under the "flag" to get a more precise location was perfect.
The mobile app was user friendly, ergonomic, simple, elegant, and pretty.
The mobile app is now cluttered, slower, not user friendly, not ergonomic, not simple, not elegant, and no longer pretty.

Over the years I have used this application, watched it grow and loved all the new layers and concepts you've added. I use it every single day as a premium user (on my professional email account).

With the release of v39, all you have done is caused me to stop using it on my mobile device and also caused me to stop the update on my other mobile device - because the old version is just so much easier to utilize in my day-to-day operations (as an Operational Meteorologist in Emergency Services).

There are many users on this platform who are voicing their opinions to you, the development team. There are some in particular who are doing so respectfully and professionally in order to HELP YOU create a more powerful and useable application for professionals as well as public users.

In my opinion it would be beneficial to you and your team to listen to them and take their advice and guidance into consideration.

Thank you for reading.

@Suty
Not a fan of this "feature". But now that's it's here...when I initially select the radar layer and hit the play button - it starts playing into the red section.... I would much rather it played in the white section.

Hopefully that made sense.

Not that it matters but I completely disagree with this.
Keep them separate please. Radar is actual REAL data. Please keep reported data and forecasted data separate. Enable the user to decide to allow them to combine into one continuous animation.

@MohtashimNiz when I started learning about meteorology I found these sites useful. Maybe they can help you out as well.

@randemgun
Did you look into the first two posts on this page https://community.windy.com/category/32/windy-premium?

@GianniSDF
It's not a new symbol, it's just not that incredibly common.

Freezing Rain: Supercooled water droplets that freeze on contact with the ground or objects.

@suty How's that master document explaining all the symbols and selections coming along? Is it? :P

@7f106db5-c8b7-4425-9d21-74e316b8562f
not sure how new this setting is, but it exists.

@Suty
Could maybe drop the words "My" and "Show"?

I donno, that's my idea for the day 🤣

@WeatherMan10 thank you!

@idefix37
Where is this switch? I can't seem to find it.
I expected it to be in the "More options.." area.

v48.1.1 on Chrome

v49.0.0 on Edge

@kostinha
Your first stop on the adventure towards knowledge and understanding could be here: https://community.windy.com/category/23/windy-stations

@christoph.almond

Is this what you mean?
Or maybe you're referring to the "Clouds" layer?

@Gkikas-LGPZ
I don't know how they'd achieve colour coding based on TAF's but I like that idea much much better than the shading or patterns I mentioned.

@Robertnh
Could also try the Import/Export method?

I think these are the default colours for Temperature:
[[203,[115,70,105,255]],
[218,[202,172,195,255]],
[233,[162,70,145,255]],
[248,[143,89,169,255]],
[258,[157,219,217,255]],
[265,[106,191,181,255]],
[269,[100,166,189,255]],
[273.15,[93,133,198,255]],
[274,[68,125,99,255]],
[283,[128,147,24,255]],
[294,[243,183,4,255]],
[303,[232,83,25,255]],
[320,[71,14,0,255]]]
The first number is temperature in Kelvin, the [###,###,###,255] is the RGB colour code I suspect.

If that works then there's an issue...if it doesn't work, there's an issue...but the information on whether it works or not and also what @idefix37 asked for would be helpful I'm sure.
