10 years ago in the upper midwest (US) we did not think about wildfire smoke. Now, for the past five years or so, every summer is "smoke season." Smoke is here to stay. Wildfires will continue to get worse.

There is post after post on this forum asking for smoke modeling. It exists in other apps, and NOAA has their own models for it. Even our local meteorologists are able to post smoke models on their blogs. Please incorporate it!

I've seen lots of suggestions to look at multiple models like PM2.5, CO, etc. to get a sense of things. Frankly that's not acceptable in a premium product. If there are already proven and useful models, why not incorporate them? Is it a licensing issue?

Thank you, and I hope to see smoke modeling available soon. We need it.

Add another +1 to the requests for access for Home Assistant users. I am also a premium Windy subscriber and would make good use of this.

An admin asked how it might be used... here are some examples in my home:

• Smoke: I was recently told by another admin elsewhere in this forum that a smoke model is coming to windy! Very needed in my part of the world. I could use that data to remind our household to shut the windows (via mobile notifications and smart speakers), as well as trigger the HVAC to turn on.

• Tornado warnings: flash lights, play audible alarms when a tornado warning is posted.

• Lightning nearby: notify the house when lighting is nearby to disconnect certain devices

• Humidity: use outside humidity data to help regulate.maintain consistent humidity inside the house

etc etc etc

Some kind of access would make sense for premium subscribers, don't you think?

@Jari-Sochorová Fantastic! I will keep an eye out.
