Sounds great. I'll hang one outside my garage door so when I leave in the morning I'll know whether to wear raingear or not. Can it also tell me whether I will need to bring rain gear to wear on the ride home?


So Cal? Do you even need rain coat for warm rain.
See comments above, CA does not have warm rain. It basically only rains in Jan/Feb in the 40s/50s. If I was in FL, I probably wouldn't care about the warm rain.

Morning new has the weather every 10-15 minutes
I don't watch the news, especially in the morning

A smart phone app will do wonders.
Oh hey, a smartphone app, why didn't I think of that? In fact, why didn't anybody else think of that and suggest that as an answer to my question? I'm gonna do that right now, lemme just search all my pockets and figure out which one has my smartphone in it. Wait just a sec, it's gotta be around here somewhere...
