      Hi,
      I am a paraglider pilot and have set up a couple of alerts for my favorite launch sites. I love this feature, but I would like to suggest some improvements.
      For us pilots it would be amazing to have a "gusts not stronger than" setting. Often times I get "a great day at xy" alerts because the wind seems perfect for flying, but closer inspection shows, the gusts make it dangerous to fly and keep you grounded. Would be very helpful to be able to prevent the triggering of an alert if gusts are too strong.
      Also very helpful (and this I think would go for many non-pilots as well) would be a "no rain at all" setting. You only take off if you are sure you will not get caught in a shower. So only if the day will stay dry an alert is triggered.
      Maybe you cloud consider these features.
      All the best, Axel
