Potential ways to visualise wind flow in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 Scenes?
Background
We are mostly using Experience Builder and adding some customisation / custom functionality, mostly to the UI / visual aspects.To date we have only provided a solution of synced 2D and 3D maps in Experience Builder.


The initial request from the client was to add the Windy (ArcGIS Flow renderer) windy symbology to a 3D scene.
I have told the client that this is not available but I am curious if there are any clever workarounds or ways to make it appear like there is wind flow in a 3D scene.

 - For example, can a 2D map with the flow renderer symbology be overlayed ontop of a 3d scene with everything except the specific layer transparent?
 - Or can there be arrow animated symbolgs that follow along a wind direction line.
 - Or could this be turned into a time series layer where the wind points are converted to lines or multiple points that can be looped to give the appearance of movement? If so, how could I tackle this?
