<![CDATA[KP-Index and Solar Wind]]>The addition of Solar Wind predictions would be nice but I can relate to the fact that that would be quite a challenge.

However the publication of the current KP-index would be an enrichment especially for drone pilots since it is an indicator for the reliability of the radioconnection one has with the drone!

Even better would be a "drone view". UAV Forecast is a great app and all, but I don't need another app when I already use Windy (Plus UAV Forecast is overpriced).

Hello Windy team,
I would like to suggest adding a Space Weather layer to Windy. As a Windy Premium subscriber, I often use the app for aurora hunting and night sky observation.
It would be very useful to have:
Kp index
Auroral oval forecast
Solar wind speed
Basic geomagnetic storm information
Windy already provides excellent cloud cover and weather forecasts, which are essential for aurora viewing. Having space weather data integrated into the same app would make Windy an even more complete tool for sky watchers and photographers.
Thank you for considering this feature.

Windy is a very good tool. If the Kp index were available. It would be unquestionably the best.

Drones should not fly in GPS-mode when the KP-Index is > 4.
