    • RE: Bushland Fire Weather Conditions Alerts

      @korina

      Hi and thankyou for responding.

      I mean the same setting already in 'My Alerts' can be used for RH, MH, DP KBDI, DF and rainfall for 10 days as the setting slide bar that windy already has within the Temperature selection (see my snips).

      What Windy currently does is great I'd just like to see additional weather conditions ( added to the selections. This would be an invaluable tool for fire management planning of wildfires and planned burns in preparedness. I'm sure you already know all the links below and I've pasted yo give you an idea what we work with. I'm very happy to work through any of this with further questions.

    • Bushland Fire Weather Conditions Alerts

      Hello, my interest is in "Bushland Fire Weather Conditions Alerts', already the wonderful Windy.com has alerts for specific locations with Wind speed range, duration of daylight hours, temperature range and rainfall accumulation. I work as a bushland fire planner and would find the additional settings a valuable planning tool.

      QUESTION 1. ; Is it possible to have the rainfall accumulation range setting extend to 240 hours (10 days) ?

      QUESTION 2. ; Is it possible to have a relative humidity setting like the temperature setting ?

      QUESTION 3. ; Is it possible to have a mixing height setting like the temperature setting ?

      QUESTION 4. ; Is it possible to have a dew point setting like the temperature setting ?

      QUESTION 5. ; Is it possible to have the Ground Moisture Keetch - Byram Drought Indices KBDI and Drought Factor DF Forest (Forest fuel dryness factor) ?

      Cheers Mel

    • Fire Operations planning prescriptions burns

      Hi,

      I work in Fire Operations planning prescriptions burns for forest fuel mitigation around assets (property) protection and environmental burns for ecological values.

      I recently discovered the Windy "My Alerts" which is a useful tool to monitor the weather conditions on my burn blocks alerting me when they're near ready to conducted a control burn or alternatively track potential risks.

      SUGGESTION 1. can the 'RAIN" be extended out to within the period of 168 hrs (1 week) ?

      SUGGESTION 2. can the Ground moisture KBDI and Drought Factor (DF Forest) widget be added?

      SUGGESTION 3. can Relative Humidity range widget be added?

      Please and thankyou,

      Mel

    • RE: Tide Forecast on Windy

      Hi there, I’m a big fan of Windy weather and would like to see better information on tides/currents. I’m a rower on the Brisbane River and we like to see the tide heights and times / date etc.
