Download the .flightplan from the email and it can then be opened in Windy. By the way, thanks to who posted the Windy link. It bridges the gap that exists with enroute weather in SD if you are not flying in the vicinity of an airport with a METAR or TAF. It is nice to have a full picture of weather for every point on your route, and this Windy tool provides that.
