Wind Plot Historical Data
For SAR handlers, especially trailing dog handlers, what the wind has already done is important to know as much as what it is doing now
-
<% blocks.forEach(function(block, index) { %>
-
<% if (imageHeight) { %>
<% } %>
<% if (!block.description) { %> <%= block.name %> <% } else { %> <%= block.name %> <% } %>
<% if (block.description) { %> <% } %>
<% }) %>

This is good for HRD Cadaver K9 also.
From an Operational/Plans POV reviewing debriefs to revisit areas we have had to scale back on - this would be very helpful.
good for understanding wind loading when planning a ski tour
Yet another vote for this! Yesterday, running a 72-hour aged urban trail, we ended up overshooting a turn by a block and running the final leg parallel to but west (UPWIND) of the actual subject trail. Looking up the previous day's weather on Weather Underground, there had been a mixed-winter-precipitation event the day prior with wind from the east. It would be super handy to just be able to see this in Caltopo without having to troll around other web sites.
Good for HRD searches as well.
Another vote for this. Good for various other use-cases... as example of the wind compass that would be very useful, here's how another app reports historical winds:
