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?

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
