      Dear Windy team,

      Thank you for Windy! I have been using the app for years as a premium user.

      I suggest the following addition to the alarms:

      Addition of an alarm in the Windy app (Android) for the UV Index (UVI) with

      • a configurable warning threshold for the UV index and
      • a default value for the warning threshold of >= 3

      The UV Index is used to assess the risk of UV-related skin and eye damage.
      The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends taking preventive protective measures from UVI ≥ 3.
      A UVI = 3 is considered the lower threshold value for UV-related health damage.
      Therefore, a notification should be activated as standard (default) from UV index 3. However, it should be possible to change the value.
      When configuring the warning threshold yourself, it should also be possible to enter decimal values with 1 decimal place, e.g. 3.5

      I currently use the following extra app to be notified of the UV index:
      SunSmart Global UV app ( https://play.google.com/store/search?q=sun%20smart&c=apps ).

      If I could be notified of the UV index via an alarm in Windy, then I would no longer need the extra SunSmart Global UV app.

        @thimu Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I'm forwarding your request to add the UV index to My Alerts to the Windy team. Warm regards, Jari
