      Hi all,

      It looks like a competitor in the weather forecast space has brought out a version of hail probability forecast.

      I don't know how accurate this forecast is from Ventusky but I do know that Windy users have been asking for a similar forecast for many years now.

      Let's hope that as AI progresses it also helps with weather forecasting.

      And here is the layer - https://www.ventusky.com/?l=hail-probability

          @anthony10 I'd like to see more Layers added to the Alerts section of Windy and in particular the CAPE index with the ability to choose J/kg rates.

            @anthony10 hail warning and alert are really needed. Tons of info in windy but this is really critical for people in southwest usa.. hope the development is quick. Excarta.io is a free alert system .. i got an alert about a minute before
            a disastrous hail storm.. almost useful (:

                @anthony10 I'm still hoping the Windy dev's are cooking up a Hail Prediction/forecast layer.

                Maybe along the lines of (SHIP) Significant Hail Parameter.

                      @Gkikas-LGPZ It's just an example similar to your post earlier :)

                      https://community.windy.com/post/216733

                      I do agree that the resolution isn't great, but I believe a lot of people would rather something than nothing.
