Windstation
The wind at the club station, now and in the forecast, with an alert when it picks up.
The problem
A sailing club on Lake Starnberg has a weather station, but sailors can't see its readings when they need them: on the way, deciding whether it's worth going out.
What it does
- Current wind at the station, with the age of the reading
- History and model forecast
- Push alert when wind picks up
Who it's for
The club's sailors. Other clubs, sailing schools and harbours with their own station can join.

- From the station
