      Push notifications and text alerts would be great. As a rope access wind turbine technician I use Windy extensively, but it's a bit of a pain to have to check my email for alerts or setup some kind of email rule that would run and send me a different notification. Windy is one of the only weather apps I use anymore and the only reason I use any others is because they offer more user-friendly notifications.

      Also, lightning alerts are a bit lacking in Windy. I love the interface for tracking storms and seeing recent strikes, but there isn't a way to get notifications about them. It would be immensely helpful if we could set a customizable radius that would trigger lightning alerts at the given distance. For my job, we are on alert when lightning is within 50 miles and we call a stop work when lightning is within 30. Having this available as a push notification or text message would make Windy all the much more valuable.

      PS I've been preaching the wonders of Windy to all my co-workers and everyone seems to love it except that the notifications aren't that intuitive. Keep up good work!

      Seek not perfection, for the very nature of "perfect" is quite antithetical to the essense of being human.

                  Yes please!!

                  Wind alerts + I would like another one as an example, set notification for temperature inversion at particular height:

                  Use-case from Czech:
                  I would like to be notified, when Jested would be above clouds...

                    Yes please. I'm in Bangkok, and it would be useful to know that a monsoon storm was on it's way. Perhaps if radar showed rain above a certain dBZ intensty "x" kms from my home location if the wind was from "x" direction. A bit of work, I know. I like the other suggestion from @mhaberler 9 days ago
                    about multiple parameters in .js if that can be done.

                            Dear users

                            We prepare slight overhaul of 2 years old "Windy Alerts" feature. If you have any ideas, or thoughts, now is the time to let us know.

                            And btw, would you like to receive Windy Alerts as push notifications to your mobile device?

                            Ivo

                            Yes,

                              Nice to be able to set degrees instead of a block for wind. Thank you!

                              Yes on push notifications for me too!

                                    Yes I would love mobile notifications about Good Weather so I can know when I can fly my FPV Quadcopter. That would be better than email as I would get it instantly not just when I check my mail. Thanks, fantastic service.

                                    THB.
