Hail Probability
-
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.

@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 (: -
@Ventilato good question
-
@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.

@anthony10
With initial data from GFS with resolution 22km?
Hmmmm..... -
@Gkikas-LGPZ It's just an example similar to your post earlier :)

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