What it does

Every morning at 6:00: the hour-by-hour wind and rain at your training airfield, with a go or no-go note by xMap AI for student flights, sent to instructors on WhatsApp.

In one sentence: Every day at 06:00, in Perth, get the 1-day weather forecast, sort them by wind_kmh and keep the top 4, write a report with xMap AI, then send message in WhatsApp Business and email the list to you.

The time it saves

Every day at 06:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 15 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 8 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
