Hail on the way? Flooding? A wildfire nearby? SkyGuardian warns you before it hits. A predictive AI reads the signals in the sky and tells you when the risk rises near you. One purchase: no subscriptions, no ads, no account.

PREDICTIVE AI
• Hail: weighs storm energy, lightning, gusts and rain, and shows the expected time of peak risk
• Flooding: tracks heavy rainfall, rising rivers and official warnings
• A 0-100 risk level for your area that connects weather, wildfires and earthquakes, with clear advice on what to do
• Rain nowcast: see in one line whether rain is coming in the next few minutes or whether it stays dry for the next 3 hours

WILDFIRES AND SMOKE PLUMES
• Satellite-detected wildfires shown right on the map
• The smoke plume follows the wind: see which way it is drifting so you can get to safety early

VOLCANOES AND ASH CLOUDS
• Erupting volcanoes worldwide from official sources (Smithsonian, USGS), plus Italian volcanoes monitored by INGV, including Etna
• The ash cloud follows the wind: a cone on the map shows where it is heading and warns you if it is moving toward you or one of your saved places
• Detail card with a link to the latest official bulletin and a shareable postcard

16-DAY FORECASTS FOR EVERY PLACE
• The next 16 days of weather for your location, for every place you save and for any point on the map

AIR AND SEA
• Air quality: AQI, fine particulate matter, ozone and UV
• Sea quality: chlorophyll-a indicator (eutrophication) on the map

EARTHQUAKES
• Recent quakes from USGS and INGV with magnitude and depth
• Tap a cluster of earthquakes on the map to see the list, from strongest to weakest
• Get notified when one happens near you or your saved places, so you know if you are in an active seismic area

KEEP YOUR PLACES SAFE
• Save your home, holiday home, family and workplace
• If something happens near one of these places, you get an alert even when the app is closed
• Hail warnings in time to move your car under cover

ANIMATED WEATHER LAYERS
• Animated wind and gusts, temperature, pressure, humidity and precipitation forecast up to 48 hours ahead, with legend and hourly slider
• Compare the ECMWF, GFS and ICON weather models
• Smoother rain radar during playback
