I'm from the USA. I love so many things about Windy, but the single feature most important to me is seeing real time lightning strikes. This helps keep both me and our horses safe by warning us when to get them into the barn before the lightning arrives. Will there be rain without lightning, so I can leave them happily out with their grass? Is there lightning coming, but can we let the ponies graze for another hour before turning them in? Do I have to move NOW to get us all safely out of the pastures? Indispensable.

When I showed Windy to one of my (human, not equine) barn buddies, she told me the next day that she had spent the whole evening exploring its features.

@Filip_K thank you so much for all your hard and frustrating work on this. It is really appreciated. We are all rooting for you.

@Korina Thanks. I guess I didn't read the announcement carefully enough. Well, if all I can do is contribute less than I used to, then I guess that's how it is. Windy is wonderful, in any case!

One of my uses for Windy is to see in advance which coming storms are just rain, and which have lightning. I'm a member of an equestrian co-op at the college where I teach. The horses can stay in the fields when it rains, but we need to get them back to the barn during thunderstorms. We used to wait until we heard thunder to rush out to the pastures, endangering both the horses and ourselves if we were too slow. Now we can see which coming storms have lightning, and we can move before it gets dangerous and frightening for the animals. So Windy isn't just for pilots. It's also for people with 4-legged ground transportation. Not your original usage model, but thank you!
