windy.com not working as a source

Open bnewbold opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

When browsing windy.com on my desktop browser (chromium on debian/linux), Map Switcher says "No coordinates available on this page".

I can't remember if this ever worked previously. Going from another source/site to windy.com does still work for me.

Hi, Can you give me the URL of windy that you're trying to use? I just tried it with https://www.windy.com/?51.866,-3.497,13 and it seemed to be fine, so I'm wondering if there's some alternative format which is failing.

I can't reproduce this now; Map Switcher is working on windy.com.

I'm not sure what the difference was before... I am logged in to a paid account, maybe I was using a weird layer or something? I tried several different layers and views and everything is working though.

Ok, now I reproduced it: when there is a pressure or some other "isoline" graphics:

  • https://www.windy.com/?47.361,-122.300,9,i:pressure
  • https://www.windy.com/?47.276,-124.189,8,i:deg0

There is a tiny toggle for the pressure isoline in the bottom right above the forecast model selection (for me, on desktop), and the other isoline options are at the scroll-down bottom of the "More Layers" sidebar.
