    Has anyone else seen the new Windguru site???

    My poor head, trying to figure it all out!!!

    WHY do they keep changing these things? It doesn't seem to have any new information on it (apart from the wind details at Skerries sailing club, which I can't seem to get rid of - might be of use to Fergal, but is of feck all interest to me!) - just is about ten times harder to read it.

    :mad::mad:

    Maybe they're midway through upgrading you?

    I have it permanently open on my phone, when I clicked on it just now it was the new version, and at first didn't it recognise me as a subscriber - but eventually I managed to log in.

    I am NOT impressed!!

    ETA - I'm always grumpy when things that I'm really familiar with change - I presume, like everything else, I'll get used to it in time, but I liked it fine the way it was!!!

    Guys, you are getting old and lazy, look up a weather chart, for starters, the GSF model used by wind guru has a 50 km scale, so you are getting the wind for part of the Irish sea and not Skerries. Get a grib file app and use that.
