Philippe,

Thank you.

I'm making now my 2017 qT "wish list" and after I'll bring it here.

Every year is getting shorter... but still some things to improve it, me thinks.

Big Hug.

If I load these two grib files into a slot individually, they render fine. When I load one into slot 1 and the second into slot 2, all the wind speed annotations disappear. Note that the grib start times are different for each file, and they are different versions (grib 1 and grib 2). I've attached snapshots with one and both gribs loaded.

Cheers
Viva Andrew and all.

Good morning.

I have a similar problema.
If I load the three GRIB slots with WRF GRIB files, immediately after loading Slot #3, I lose partially the TWS info.

A Big Hug.

I think this is not a bug, but a feature ;)

If you choose to display wind tws labels (why you choose to display BOTH wind arrows barbules AND wind color AND wind labels is up to you), then qtVlm displays only wind TWS labels for the grib with the highest resolution. Otherwise it would be a complete mess.
Viva Philippe and all,

Good afternoon.

Well, the option for choosing “gradient colors” and “TWS” values is more or less obvious.
With the colors you get an overall quick picture while with the “TWS” values you have more precise data in particular zones, if you need.
Also, sum up the fact that qT doesn't have a "TWS" graphic label with colours vs. "TWS" values.

No issues here when I use the GRIB file with less resolution (first picture, Spain 12km WRF WAM 171019-06.grb) with only one with higher resolution (Baleares 4km WRF WAM 171020-00.grb). With two Wind Slots loaded no problems for reading the “TWS” values (pls, see second picture).

But, when I add a third high resolution GRIB (Almeria 4km WRF WAM 171019-06.grb) in the third Slot, I’ve problems (third picture).

That seems incompatible with your explanation, Philippe, otherwise the “TWS” values for the Almeria GRIB file (higher resolution) were showed.

Probably the explanation is other. What do you think?

Raja Muda Selangor 2026 - Port Klang to Pangkor

Sailonline is delighted to be able to offer online sailors an opportunity to once again compete in all three of the offshore races of the Raja Muda Selangor International race week, organised by the Royal Selangor Yacht Club in association with the RORC, and commencing with a 75nm trip from Port Klang to Pangkor. This year we will be racing this race, and the other two, which together will count towards our Sailonline Raja Muda Series (RMI), in X-332s.
Be careful at the Pangkor Island marina – there are tidal currents of 1-2 knots, which make mooring to floating docks quite tricky.

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
