I like the comparison but would still like to be able to see the old style where it provided a graphical representation of wind over the hours.

Hello Team Windy,

In addition to what Abbas72 has to say, I would like to add that Wunderground is a huge competitor in the weather station hosting websites. In order to beat them, some innovation is needed as weather underground's interface hasn't changed much in over 6 years and has also gone down in quality thanks to the mapbox.com maps. Yuck! The real-time stream of data being uploaded to wunderground.com is every 2.5 seconds from meteobridge, which is impressive and is archived on wunderground. Windy should develop a platform such that if you click on your desired public weather station, it should provides you with the dynamic options, like historical data of that PWS etc, max wind speed of the day, week, month with a click of a button from a drop down menu, etc.
if the API is as attractive as Windy.com's present simulation of the weather models, hands down you guys would give lots of competition to other weather station hosting websites. I hope to see progress with this regard. This is quite exciting!

@Petemen1 You are mixing up two different concepts. True air temperature and wind chill. Wind chill is not a temperature. As Mark mentioned earlier, its a calculated value based on wind speed. Even wind speeds vary so significantly between urban and rural and based on your local topography that you cannot blame Windy for not capturing that or for not displaying something you might be seeing on your PWS.

@Cody-Pothier I agree with you. If they have made more advanced features on premium that would make sense. To take away a basic 10 day forecast for a subscription is indeed a cheapshot. I have been using windy since 2015 and this senseless act of greed was rather shocking!
