Warning feature is useless
-
I'm out on a hike. The sky is getting darker, the weather is turning, and suddenly it starts raining.
Then my meteoblue sends a notification:
Official severe weather warning (issued 2 minutes ago, valid until ...) like no shit
Wouldn't it be great if we could anticipate these conditions before the official warning is issued?
Of course, I checked the forecast before setting off. But sometimes the weather changes faster than expected;, before you even reach your destination.

Hello, and thank you for your question.
meteoblue relays official severe weather warnings issued by national meteorological authorities, which are updated approximately every 5 minutes and cannot be modified by meteoblue. While official warnings may come shortly after weather changes begin, meteoblue offers tools such as nowcasting, radar data, ensemble forecasts, predictability indices, and precipitation probabilities to help anticipate fast-changing weather conditions before official warnings are issued. However, custom or advance warnings beyond official alerts are not currently supported. Minute-by-minute updates are limited by model and data constraints, so rapid weather changes may sometimes occur before official warnings are issued.
We hope we were able to answer your questions and wish you pleasant weather with meteoblue.
