      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!

        An addition: Even more, the KP-index is an indicator for the reliability of the GPS signals. Drones should not fly in GPS-mode when the KP-Index is > 4.

          @brdi57 I very much agree with your comment. Windy is a very good tool. If the Kp index were available. It would be unquestionably the best.
