Does anybody know any websites or apps that can display turbulence for each altitude? I am looking for something like this layout. Thanks!
That, I believe, is ForeFlight. It’s used for professional flying by student and commercial pilots. 1 year’s subscription is about $240, so a little excessive for simulator flying. You can use websites like Turbli or the National Weather Service Aviation page to get turbulence maps for free.

I would recommend taking a look at this.
In addition windy.com is a pretty good website.

That’s not true, it’s just something Laura is experimenting with and may implement it in a future release if it goes well.
Laura said on BlueSky that it “may” make it into the next update.
Yes, you’re partially correct - we will be getting the wind map “if everything goes as planned.” The turbulence map is experimental.
That is an app used by Delta pilots. I got the image from a Delta pilot that documents some of his flights on social media.
Just saying, all the paid services are pulling that data from the aviation weather center. Just go to the source and get it for free. The aviation weather center has sooo much good information, look there if you want any weather data pertaining to aviation. Not always the most intuitive website, but for anything in the US, and a decent number of products globally, that will be the best source.

Windy is free, easy to use, and displays wind and clear air turbulence in addition to many other things.
Not as much quality as the ones mentioned above but it’s useful if you’re not looking for more advanced features.
They have a few different plans with different features (I hold the $120/yr one currently)
Seconded, its got some great charts and info. Website got a face lift not that long ago, fairly simple to navigate
