      Oh yes please, push notifications on mobile are something I'm missing for a long time. Hacking that with e-mail forwarding to SMS kind of works but is PITA!

      I also thins some ideas in this thread would be useful:

      • multiple independent notifications for the same place,
      • warning about lightning in X km radius,
      • multiple conditions which need to be fulfilled at once to issue warning.

      Maybe you can even make a paid feature from notifications to SMS: That would work also for "dumb phones" once user sets it up in web interface.

      Thank you very much for your work on Windy!

        Yes to have push notifications instead of filing up my mail box will be a good option. Thanks for your efforts.

            Push notifications would be great. Plus being able to customize the alerts would be nice as well.
            For example: If precipitation is greater than 25% send alert.

                  Yes. From my area and if some severe unpredictable conditions occur anywhere in the world. Also if you could explain why they are occurring in a line or two.

                          If alerts are driven by model data they will generally not be as good as those issued by the forecasters at weather services using local knowledge. This needs to be considered in the design as a matter of safety and for general user education. It could potentially have a legal liability aspect in some jurisdictions that should be considered.

                          It would be good to add some kind of advice on a risk acceptance page when creating an alert. Any generated alerts could include a link to the local weather service's alerts web page.

                                    Yes, I DO want push notifs to my phone.

                                    Also... when I touch "home" (little house icon), I lose my zoomed-in view, and have to go from way out in space view back to the little spot I am watching! Please fix. Thanks!

                                        Yes, as daily motorbike driver I will really appreciate to receive notifications on my mobile phone. Especially for wind and rain values. Thanks a lot! :-)
