<p dir="auto">Thank you for Windy! I have been using the app for years as a premium user.</p>
<p dir="auto">I suggest the following addition to the alarms:</p>
<p dir="auto">Addition of an alarm in the Windy app (Android) for the <strong>UV Index (UVI)</strong> with</p>
<ul>
<li>a <strong>configurable</strong> warning threshold for the UV index and</li>
<li>a default value for the <strong>warning threshold of &gt;= 3</strong></li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">The UV Index is used to assess the risk of UV-related skin and eye damage.<br />
The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends taking preventive protective measures from UVI ≥ 3.<br />
A UVI = 3 is considered the lower threshold value for UV-related health damage.<br />
Therefore, a notification should be activated as standard (default) from UV index 3. However, it should be possible to change the value.<br />
When configuring the warning threshold yourself, it should also be possible to enter decimal values with 1 decimal place, e.g. 3.5</p>
<p dir="auto">I currently use the following extra app to be notified of the UV index:<br />
<strong>SunSmart Global UV app</strong> ( <a href="https://play.google.com/store/search?q=sun%20smart&amp;c=apps" rel="nofollow ugc">https://play.google.com/store/search?q=sun%20smart&amp;c=apps</a> ).</p>
<p dir="auto">If I could be notified of the UV index via an alarm in Windy, then I would no longer need the extra <em>SunSmart Global UV app</em>.</p>
