      Hi team,

      I have a feature request for a smartwatch widget or Iphone widget focused entirely on short-term nowcasting based on radar data extrapolation.

      While map animations are great, they can be slow to load and hard to read on the go. It would be highly practical to have a simple, data-efficient view that instantly answers three basic questions for my exact GPS location for the upcoming 30 minutes:

      1 When exactly will it start raining? (ETA in minutes)
      2 How long will it last? (Expected duration of the shower)
      3 How intense will it be? (A simple, easy-to-read bar/line chart showing precipitation intensity)

      A quick-glance data screen like this would be an absolute game-changer for quick decision-making during outdoor activities.

      Thanks for considering!

        @Richard-Kokeš-2 Hi, we are not planning anything related, but we offer live alerts for storms or heavy rain, have you seen that feature? If you have used this, you are notified on your mobile device about the storm around you.
