May 21, 2026 13:55

These are the 14 available presets. Each has a default threshold you can adjust per target (for example: frost at 0°C for the city, but 2°C for the vineyard).

Agricultural Risk

Events that directly affect production.

  • Frost — Alerts you when the forecast minimum temperature for the night is at or below the threshold. Default: 0°C (set higher for vineyards and orchards, ≈ 2°C).
  • Fire risk — Combination of low relative humidity, high temperature, and strong winds. Default: FWI index ≥ 25.
  • Extreme heat — Forecast daily maximum above the threshold. Default: 35°C.

Radar & Satellite

Real-time detections, faster than any official service.

  • Hail nearby — Push when a hail cell is detected within the threshold distance. Default: 15 km.
  • Lightning nearby — Push when lightning is detected (GOES GLM network) within the threshold. Default: 10 km, 5-minute window.

Severe Storm

Large-scale weather events. These generally come from NWS, SMN, or equivalent.

  • Hurricane or tropical storm — Early warning when a circulation center enters your area.
  • Tornado — Alert on official warning or Doppler radar detection.
  • Severe storm — Events classified as "severe" (winds ≥ 90 km/h, large hail, heavy rainfall).
  • Flood — Alert from official warning or rainfall accumulation above threshold.
  • Winter storm — Significant snowfall, blizzard, road ice.

Official Warnings

Get the same warnings the official agency issues.

  • Official weather warning — SMN (Argentina), NWS (USA), AEMET (Spain), INMET (Brazil), etc.
  • Official wildfire risk — Fire department / civil defense wildfire alerts.

Geophysics

  • Nearby earthquake — Push when an earthquake occurs within the threshold distance and magnitude. Default: magnitude ≥ 3, distance ≤ 100 km.

How do I activate one?

Go to Advanced → My Vigía Alerts, tap the preset card you want, choose your targets (city, fields), and you're done. More detail in "Activating and deactivating presets".
