Feature request: Add WBX/WBI and GLFI sensors to DWD integration
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe
The WBX/WBI (Waldbrandgefahrenindex) and GLFI (Grasland-Feuerindex) are not currently available in the Home Assistant DWD integration/add-on. This means these important fire risk indicators cannot be used in automations or displayed as station-based sensors.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add WBX/WBI and GLFI as sensor entities in the DWD integration, ideally per configured station. Each station should expose both indices as numeric sensor values alongside the existing weather data.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Manual use of the DWD website (not automatable)
- Custom scraping or external sensors (fragile and maintenance-heavy)
- Estimating fire risk from local weather conditions (not equivalent to official indices)
Additional context
The indices are available here:
https://www.wettergefahren.de/warnungen/indizes.html
Adding them would enable useful automations such as fire risk alerts or irrigation control based on official DWD data.
