Products that do what A new, clean, and concise look at weather from My-Cast does
We just released a new weather website using all sorts of awesome web technologies. We use ModestMaps to show tiled, animated radar and satellite data, Raphael.js to show historical averages and record high/lows, and MapQuest's new Nominatim service sitting on top of OpenStreetMap to do location lookups. We're really proud of this site and would love to hear your feedback and to have try it out: http://preview.my-cast.com/

For the past few months, I've been working on a website that answers two different questions: - Where in my city have the best travel times to all the things and people I care about? - Given a listing, how far is it from all the things and people I care about? Personally this was fueled by my own frustrations when I was apartment hunting in NYC. I was frustrating to have to juggle so many Google Maps tabs when I was evaluating a listing, and it was also annoying to not have full confidence that I was even searching in the right places. I wanted to be close to work, a Trader Joe's, and a…

I was walking around New York last month during some light rain and noticed about half the people had umbrellas open. When the rain picked up a few minutes later, that number jumped closer to 80%. It got me thinking it'd be cool to track this somehow, so I built a website! I am taking a sidewalk livestream, feeding it into a YOLO model for people tracking, then sending a frame of each detected person to Gemini 2.0 Flash, which returns structured JSON about each person's clothing and if they're holding an umbrella. I also had fun making the site look like a TV weather channel. I showed some…

The UK MET office recently redesigned their site, adding a lot of additional whitespace, scrolling, and animations. This significantly reduced its usability for me, and left me wanting an ‘at a glance’ weather site. I made https://brolly.sh, a minimalist, plain text weather forecasting site. You can use it to view weather from around the world, with: 7 day forecast; Previous day log (so you can confirm it definitely was cooler / hotter / wetter / drier yesterday!); Hourly rain, wind, temperature, conditions; Hourly UV, air quality and pollen, including pollen type…

I got tired of bookmarking weather sites wherever I went so I created this. It generates a forecast based on your current location. I'd really appreciate any criticism and feedback even more so.

I had been wanting to try experimenting with nowcasting since the death of Dark Sky and finally got around to it. This application essentially became a playground for me to experiment with various weather datasets and geospatial visualizations. Some interesting concepts that came from it: The nowcast is using pySTEPS optical flow under the hood: https://pysteps.readthedocs.io/en/latest/auto_examples/plot_.... This library is super cool. It bugged me that every radar visualization just gave you choppy snapshots in time, so I spent some time working on building a…

Basically was getting annoyed jumping between 5 different sites during this winter storm season, so I built "StormWatch". It's a no-fuss, mobile-friendly webpage (dashboard) that shows all the stuff I was looking for, but in one simple UI. Features: - Real-time NWS alerts with safety tips - Snow/ice/precip accumulation forecasts (+wind) - Dynamic preparation checklists based on your alerts - Supply calculator for your household size - Regional weather news It's free, no login required, works on any device. Just enter your ZIP.…

This is a small iOS app (iPad / iPhone) app I worked on that basically shows weather on a map (along with day/night info). Just something I made to quickly see what conditions are like all over the world. http://bit.ly/tUuEKB (app is free and ad-free, more just an experiment than anything else) Backend is in java (server) and perl (pulling data). More interesting than the app is perhaps the platform behind it. I hope to introduce other kinds of data to be seen on a map. Currently getting about 500-1000 downloads per day on iPad. Really just curious if people find anything unique or…

This is a simple single page weather app I made that grabs data from NOAA for where I live. If you view the html source you can see it's pretty easy to configure it for wherever you live in the U.S. You just have to edit the links. Personally, I like using this more than any of the weather apps out there because it's fast and has the data I want and need, and no ads. It uses the latest version of Bootstrap and jQuery. https://ezofficetech.com/branson/

I miss Dark Sky, so I built my own weather app. Here's how GrayCloud works: * Raincast: minute-by-minute rain prediction and accumulation tracking for your exact location * Forecasts: 10 day forecasts use multiple high resolution sources and correct for bias at your location. * Alerts: rain starting, stopping, severe weather, daily summary and more * Widgets: home and lock screen widgets * Multi-platform: apple watch and mac apps I use NOAA and ECMWF models for core weather data and a custom model to compute rain accumulation and the next 60 minute radar movements. I also offer Apple…

This was posted before but I'm quite pleased to share a major update for https://oikolab.com. We now have available seven decades of hourly weather data starting from 1950 for any location in the world, thanks to the recent publication of ERA5 reanalysis data from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). ERA5 is gap-free, gridded dataset generated using data assimilation method (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_assimilation), similar to NWP models but with the benefit of hindsight. As far as we're aware of, we're the first weather data…

Hello! I'd like share about my sideproject https://gribstream.com It is an API to extract weather forecasting data from the National Blend of Models (NBM) https://vlab.noaa.gov/web/mdl/nbm and the Global Forecast System (GFS) https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/weather-climate-models/gl... . The data is freely available from AWS S3 in grib2 format which can be great but also really hard (and resource intensive) to work with, especially if you want to extract timeseries over long periods of time based on a few coordinates. Being able…
