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?

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
