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?

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
