I found Windy absolutely indispensable during the 2019/2020 Australian wildfire season. I cycle to work and I would check Windy for pockets of clean air blowing in from the coast from the North which from me is the desert, hence no fires.
There was a point where southern, eastern and western winds all blew smoke from one major fire or another. We have air quality testing sites in various parts of the state to reference, but at a certain point you needed to forecast on a national level in order to not get caught in one smoke cloud or another.
