Estofex provides very relevant and expert forecasts in Europe on the risks of storms (thunder, lightning, hail, tornadoes, etc.). Would it be nice to add this kind of alerts to Windy? But the information is only available over Europe.

It would be wonderfull if the Estofex Warning could be integrated as Warning. Espacially as mobile/push-notification/eMail warning. That would be a great feature.
