Version 495 and server improvements

/

Version 495 is now available. We also made some improvements on the server side.

  • One cool change is clickable links in the alert bar details.

  • We've also switched to kPa instead of hPa for pressure as that's most commonly used in Canada. If you like hPa, simply move the decimal point in your minds-eye. Eg. 101.35 kPa is 1013.5 hPa. :) We plan to add hPa as an option eventually. Thank you for your patience!

  • Humidex & Windchill added for "Feels like". You can choose between the hybrid feels like that includes wind and cloud or the more traditional Humidex/Windchill.

  • Humidity & Pressure for "Minutes" & "Hourly" products.

  • Big improvements to notification speed, especially for a large alert. More improvements coming soon!

  • Added & refined our Instant Updates™ for localized severe weather notifications .

  • Other bug and stability fixes (more coming!)

  • Great news! We’ve launched a fix on our servers (no update required) to combine alerts that are located in one alert-area into one single notification instead of several.

    Eg. Barrie, Oro, Collingwood

    Please keep an eye on it and let us know how it works!
