I like the ability to plot the satellite derived wind fields to see the wind profile through the depth of the atmosphere. However, I have a hard time seeing what that profile looks when the wind barbs for the different levels are not at the same point, as in the image below.
The barbs are color-coded to the different levels, with the cooler colors for the lower levels and warmer colors in the upper levels. You can see that wind barbs near the surface (dark blue) are not in the same location as winds a bit higher (light blue), which are not in the same location as wind barbs higher in the atmosphere.
It would be helpful if wind barbs from all levels could be snapped to specific points, basically creating a uniform grid of wind barbs at all levels.
