How to set up a Windy Alert

javiclayton

@cuezco, yeah I was happily using Windy alerts in Ireland with the ECMFW model working nicely there, but now in Canada these alerts are useless. Unlike HRRR, that model is not accurate at all here. I can only get alerts generated by ECMFW modeling, and these are always wrong in this region :(

@javiclayton Thank you for feedback. Alerts are currently only available for ECMWF model, but we may add more model options in the future.

Is it possible to set alerts based on real time data from airport weather stations instead of forecasts?

Korina

@mvanhove Hello, it is not possible to set alert based on measured data from stations or airports.

Hi,
I have the same issue regarding the model selection in the Switzerland. AROME seem to be the best here for wind.

Feature Request: Is it possible to set up alerts for different altitudes, say FL100?

@ivo I'm trying to set an alert for when the forecasted temperature is between -35C and -20C but it appears that it is not possible to configure alerts for temperatures below -20. Is there a way to set that up? When the temperature gets very cold (below -22C), we have to take extra measures to ensure water pipes do not freeze and it would be nice to be able to set up alerts for that.

@shaundaigle Hello, that's correct, there is currently no way to set the alert for more than -20C. Thanks for feedback.

Can we change how far in advance the notifications are triggered?
Ideally I'd like a notification 3-5 days in advance even though I understand the accuracy will be worse.

@edwardwsears This option is currently not available, but thanks for the input!

Hi! How to set it up with option like "no rain accumulated within 24h"? So it will work only if there was no rain last 24 hours.

Korina

@Pod-Stava The "no rain" parameter is not available at the moment.

Pod Stava

Thanks for the answer. Can you add that as wished from the feedback? Or is it there already?

Korina

@Pod-Stava We will consider it.

Hello
Is it possible to set up an alert that isn't specific to a single location?
For example in my case, I'd be interested in getting an alert when a wet bulb temperature in excess of 35°C is set to happen anywhere on the planet.

It would be cool to also be able to set a wind-gust range. This is sometimes more important than the middle wind strength.
