New plugin for review: Riesgo de Heladas (Frost Risk)

Guillermo Kozub

Hi Windy team,
I'd like to submit my plugin for review and approval for the public gallery.

Plugin: Riesgo de Heladas (Frost Risk)
Install URL: https://windy-plugins.com/17390150/windy-plugin-riesgo-heladas/1.0.2/plugin.min.js
Repository: https://github.com/guillekzb/pluginwindy

What it does:
It estimates the overnight frost risk for any point on the map and shows a simple
three-level indicator:
🟢 Low risk · 🟡 Moderate risk · 🔴 High probability of frost

The risk index combines five variables from the forecast:

2 m temperature (main driver)
Dew point
Cloud cover
Wind
Relative humidity

It models both advective freezes (cold air mass) and radiative frost (clear skies +
calm wind + sub-zero dew point favour strong nighttime cooling). Cloud cover is derived
from the meteogram's relative humidity at pressure levels, since the point forecast does
not expose it directly. It uses ECMWF (default) or GFS, and shows the most critical hour,
the forecast minimum temperature and an hourly timeline.

The plugin was built with the official windy-plugins template (Svelte + TypeScript).
It's aimed at agriculture and outdoor planning. Feedback is welcome — thanks!

Hi @Guillermo-Kozub, thanks for your plugin. Can you fix the following:

add a screenshot (src/screenshot.jpg) that will appear in the plugin directory.

@pavelmedia Thanks for the review! I've added the screenshot (src/screenshot.jpg) and republished.

Updated plugin URL:
https://windy-plugins.com/17390150/windy-plugin-riesgo-heladas/1.1.0/plugin.min.js

Changelog since the previous version:

Added the directory screenshot (src/screenshot.jpg), now bundled with the build.
Adapted to the new point-forecast format (temp → temperature); dew point and
relative humidity are now sourced from the meteogram and completed via the
Magnus formula when needed.
Cloud data can no longer block the result, plus clearer error messaging.
New feature: shows the nearest weather station (by distance) with its latest real
observation and computes the current frost risk from those measured values. Cloud
cover falls back to the forecast, since stations don't measure it.

Let me know if anything else is needed for approval. Thanks!
