Frequently Asked Questions

The weekly VanSky index for Morondava is 36 out of 100. It is the average of the daily scores, adjusted for swings in the weather: the more uneven the week, the lower the score.

Today a 500 W panel setup will produce about 2.8 kWh in Morondava. The estimate uses the cloud forecast and the length of daylight. Set your own panel power with the “My panels” control at the top of the page and the figures will update.

The daily score for Morondava combines thermal comfort (temperature and humidity) at 35%, sunshine at 25%, precipitation at 25% and wind at 15%. Frost, storms, extreme heat or heavy rain pull the day's score down sharply. The weekly score is the daily average, adjusted for swings in the weather.

VanSky Index

A weather comfort index for travel: a 0–100 score. Recalculated daily from live weather data — temperature, rainfall, wind and sun.

80–100Ideal
60–79Comfortable
40–59Acceptable
20–39Challenging
0–19Extreme
How it's calculated:
Thermal comfort 35% — temperature + humidity
Sunshine 25% — panel charge, mood; in heat the sun is no longer a bonus
Precipitation 25% — rain → muddy ground
Wind 15% — awning, driving, noise
Extremes override all: frost, heat, storm, downpour
Heat counts by feels-like temperature: at 32°+ the score can’t reach “Comfortable”, muggy nights lower it further
A dangerous day drags the week down: a storm or downpour in the forecast keeps the week from being “Comfortable”
Bonus: warm sea, high panel output
Data: Open-Meteo · Updated several times a day
VanSky index for Morondava, Madagascar — 36 out of 100 (Challenging). Decide in seconds: temperature, precipitation, wind and solar output. Data refreshed several times a day from real weather observations. Forecast updated 27 Oct, 23:07 UTC.
