24 alternatives to GrayCloud – a modern Dark Sky alternative
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…

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…

I built it because it's surprisingly hard to find these kinds of images in a format that's useful to developers and hobbyists. I was building a 3D ISS tracker and wanted to include live clouds but couldn't find anything good, so I got sidetracked, and here we are.
