Nice enhancement! It looks like a smart combination of Infra and Visible. This is like the 'classical view' some other websites offer, but much much better! Using the smooth animation it's even more impressive.

RE: Version 44 Has Landed – See What’s New!
Nice new release!
One request though.The delay in the MTG images is about 25 minutes (used to be about 10-15 minutes for MSG). In the Radar+ view the images are extrapolated over these 25 minutes, giving a almost perfect illusion of 'real time, no delay' images. Disabling the RAD button button gives me the satellite images only. Handy!
Is it possible to have this extrapolation also in the Satellite view? Now you miss almost half the period in the 1h loop.
Thanks!

New satellite MTG difference in views
Example satellite view:

Moving the time slide ruler to the right does not change the image. The delay seems to be about 25 minutes.Example radar+ view at the same time:

Moving back to '25m ago' reproduces the first image.
The delay here seems to be only about 5-10 minutes.Wind was West, so clouds moved to the East.

RE: Understanding the Compare Forecast Feature in Windy.com
@Korina From the Netherlands I most use models ECMWF and UKM, supported by ICOM.

RE: Be one step ahead with the advanced features of Windy Premium! [EN]
I like the new satellite archive feature. But I have some tips for users.
Per day only 24 images are presented (1hr resolution). The 'smooth animation' routine has some troubles generating a nice flawless motion picture. So I recommend to turn to feature off while using the archive, or stop animation and use cursor keys to go back and forth 1 hour. -
RE: Precipitation prediction and visualization
@Korina Hi Korina, that's not really my point. My issue is that the values on the map don't correspond with the values in the forecast, when using 1h forecast steps (Premium).
The map always shows 3h values. Indeed, if I switch to 3-hourly forecast, then you're right: the values only differ slightly. But in 1h forecast thet may differ by a big amount.
It would be nice if I switch the forecast from 3h to 1h, then the map also switches to 1h precipitation display. -
Precipitation prediction and visualization
Next a screenshot regarding Rain, Thunder for Utrecht, NL at 0h Dec 7:

I'm using 1h steps in map and forecast. On the map you see 3.8mm and in the forecast 0.6mm. Ik looks like the map shows the forecasted precipitation of the last 3 hours before 0h.
Unlike other websites, this behaviour makes precipitation areas make much more intensive and extended. A few hours later for example (2h 7 Dec):

Forecast 0mm, but shown on map still 0.7mm, though it's forecasted dry for 2 hours!
It seems to me that map display and forecast should correspond, as they do for all other weather elements. -
