Morning weather script for every region
A 40-second weather script for every region, every morning.
What it does
Every day at 5:00: the forecast for each city of your coverage area, written by xMap AI as a 40-second weather script for radio and TV, with a note on anything unusual, saved to Google Drive and emailed to the presenters.
In one sentence: Every day at 05:00, in Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey, get the 2-day weather forecast, write a report with xMap AI, then create file from text in Google Drive and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
The weather slot airs every day and someone writes it at dawn. This flow writes it from the forecast, city by city, and flags anything unusual.

The time it saves
Every day at 05:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 20 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 10 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
