Release notes

View global forecast wind speed, direction, and temperatures at multiple altitudes and times using these stunning animated weather layers.
Both the “Winds (Temps)” and “Winds (Speeds)” layers use colorful heat maps covering the globe to represent their primary forecast values at the selected altitude and time.
Overlaid on each layer’s heat map are smoothly-flowing particle animations representing wind direction and speed, providing an intuitive view of large-scale weather patterns in relation to the layer’s primary forecast value (wind speed or temperature).
Use the Time Slider to view wind forecasts in a 24+ hour period, and move the Altitude Slider to view winds from the surface up to 63,000 ft.
The new Weather Layer Legend just above the time slider dynamically adjusts its range of values as you view different altitudes to only show the colors and associated values that are present at the current altitude, a feature unique to these two layers.
Both layers are saved when you Pack for a flight so you can view them offline, but ForeFlight only downloads the portions of each that intersect your route to limit the download size.
Both layers are included with ForeFlight Performance subscription plans.
