Move your green start waypoint and your red destination waypoint to your desired locations.

Anytime you adjust the route, the high-resolution GRIB areas are automatically selected for that route. If desired, you can manually override this by deselecting

or selecting these areas. Please note that the 1km and 8km areas are only available with the Professional Subscription.

Click on the download button.

Select GRIB 50km or 100km resolution to download a GRIB area for your passage. When downloading over a Satellite connection we recommend using All Models, 24 hour timestep,5 days, 100km resolution, wind, rain and pressure. Highest resolution GRIB files are generally too large for downloading over a satellite connection. You are best to get this detailed weather information using the weather routing results.

Then Click Next , then Download All and then wait for your file to download.

While the download is in progress you can click on the hide button, and view detailed weather routing data. Here we have graphs, wind, summary, route, wave and current.

Once the entire download is complete you will be able to view all the GRIB data that you have requested.

Previous data that you have downloaded will be removed from the display, so that you are only viewing the most current forecast.

The wind can be displayed in 3 formats - arrows with pressure contours lines, Wind Barbs with pressure contours including wind shading , and directional arrows with pressure contour lines including wind shading. All 3 formats show the same data, so you can choose your favorite format.

To animate the GRIB file use the play button. You can also use the left/right arrows to manually animate the weather at your own pace. The date/time is shown in the timezone of your Laptop next to the legend. In addition you can click on the animation time slider to jump to a specific day. For example Monday.

You can switch between the forecast models by clicking on PWG/PWE/GFS/ECMWF/SPIRE/UKMO to get a comparison of the top 6 weather models.

In addition you can view rain/cloud/air temp/wave. If you have not downloaded air temperature as in this example the feature will be greyed out and not available.

To view the high resolution GRIB areas select GRIB highest resolution. Only 1 high resolution GRIB area can be viewed at a time. Select this area by clicking on the yellow square. Please note that you can only view high resolution areas that you have downloaded, the yellow squares. The high resolution areas contain more data and therefore take a fraction longer to display.
