      When setting the wave alert is the direction for the alert where the wave comes from or going to?

          Hi! I am a skier looking to set up a new snow notification for the future (like sending me a notification if a certain resort/location is forecasted to receive X in of new snow in the next 5 days). Is this a current feature? If not, could I request it to be? Thank you!

              @dobrigoran If I'm reading the screenshot correctly, the text shows new snowfall in the previous 3 days. I'm asking for new snowfall in the next x amount of days. Hope this helps clear up any confusion, thanks for the reply.

                  @dobrigoran Hi, this is strange and I will discuss it with colleagues, since this data are taken from the layer with new snow forecast.

                    Okay, the reason for this setup is the intention to inform about the new snow in last few days, so it is set correctly.

                      Hi, could you please add a "no rain" feature to the alerts? I want to use this for a BBQ weather alert.

                      Right now I can only choose days that have "at least" X mm of rain. I want zero mm of rain for my BBQ! Thank you

                        @Sean-Cooke-2 I will discuss that with colleagues since this would be the most suitable condition probably.

                              Hi.

                              Is it possible to set and alarm for sea temperature. I can find sea temperature in layers - but not as an option for an alarm.

                              Best wishes

                              Peter

                                I have Windy Premium, but I can only get one alert active per location.
                                • Conditions are toggled on, ranges don’t overlap, and durations/day filters are set.
                                • The location is saved as a Favorite.
                                • One alert shows as blue (active), but any additional alerts for the same spot stay grey or crossed out, even though they’re configured correctly.

                                It looks like the app is still limiting me to one active alert per favorite location. Is this a bug, or am I missing a setting to allow multiple alerts to run simultaneously?

                                  Is there some possiblity to turn on alert on wind bursts and not on normal wind speed?

                                    It is not possible to set an alert for Wind gusts, only for Wind which is the averaged wind over 10 minutes.

                                      I just signed up for a premium subscription. I don't get a Favorites icon next to the Search Bar as shown in all the examples. Can you please advise?

                                        As an aviation pilot, I would like to know where the cloud base is located. There is an overlay available for cloud tops, but not for cloud base. Is that correct?

                                          This is because you need to click on the weather picker to display the location name in the search bar name and see the small heart appearing.

                                            It is in the “Clouds, aviation” layer category.
