Make alerts more obvious
-
After years of using windy I only just found alerts. It’s not obvious to have these under the ‘heart’ icon. Suggest put a bell icon next to heart too to invite more clicks. Configuring an alert is not obvious as to what is selected/enabled vs off. Suggest colour (eg yellow or green as on) vs grey. With temperature alert not obvious if alert is for inside temperature range or outside temperature range - presumably inside.
Would be great to select ‘all models’ not just one or best, so ‘worst’ weather/temperature could be alerted say.
Finally, be good to alert on dew-point/frost for agriculture.

Setting the Alert is quite simple.
You are right, the Dew point temperature would useful for assessing the risk of frost for plants.
But in addition to Temperature parameter which is predicted at 2m high, you can add 2 other parameters
A light wind or no wind
A clear sky
So if you get a forecast of low temperature likely to cause frost, if at same time you have a high wind speed or a cloudy sky, the alert will not be triggered.With several parameter the alert will be triggered if low temperature AND low wind AND clear sky are met.
