Incorrect windspeed? #81

I noticed while browsing: https://fogos.pt/fogo/2020050015669

The windspeed seems a little high.

I think it's 8064m/h, the 3 digits in the non integer part of the number make the comma easily mistakable by a thousand separator. That's only a suspicion though.

If that's indeed the case, I'd say that having only 2 digits after the comma to avoid this misinterpretation should be a good solution since 5m/h doesn't seem to be a relevant resolution in this context and can be ignored.

Maybe even just keeping one or no digits after the comma would be enough? I don't have proper insight into the technical side of the meteorological data to make such a call.

Maybe i just read it wrong in that case @mamoit . Appreciate you letting me know
