Rain alert for my city

What it does

Every morning: the 5-day forecast for your city, and an email only on days when rain is expected.

In one sentence: Every day at 06:00, in London, get the 5-day weather forecast, keep those where rain_expected is Yes, then email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Rain changes deliveries, staffing and footfall. A warning a few days ahead is enough to plan.

Who it is for

Logistics, fleet & delivery. Dispatch, fleet and delivery teams who keep goods moving around closures, weather and ports. Every use case for logistics & delivery

Best use cases

• A delivery company
• A construction site
• An outdoor events team

What each run gives you

• An email on rainy days

The time it saves

Every day at 06:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 10 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 5 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 5 blocks.
