Automated Weather Alerts and Data Logging
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow automatically receives location data via a webhook, logs it into Airtable, retrieves real-time weather information, and sends a customized weather alert via SMS. It's an efficient solution for keeping track of and reacting to weather conditions.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow automates the process of gathering and distributing weather information. It begins by listening for incoming data through a secure webhook, capturing essential details like name, number, and city. Once received, this information is intelligently processed and stored in an Airtable database for historical tracking. Subsequently, the workflow taps into the OpenWeatherMap API to fetch current weather conditions for the specified city. Finally, it leverages Twilio to send a personalized SMS alert containing detailed weather information directly to the provided number. This end-to-end automation streamlines data management and proactive communication.
Key Features
- Real-time Webhook Ingestion: Seamlessly capture data from external sources.
- Automated Data Archiving: Store valuable location and event data in Airtable.
- Dynamic Weather Information Retrieval: Access up-to-the-minute weather data.
- Personalized SMS Alerts: Send timely and informative weather notifications via Twilio.

How To Use
- Configure the Webhook Node: Set up the webhook path and choose HTTP POST with header authentication for secure incoming data.
- Map Incoming Data with the Set Node: Define the key-value pairs (Name, Number, City) to extract from the incoming JSON payload.
- Integrate with Airtable: Connect your Airtable credentials and specify the target table for data storage.
- Fetch Weather Data: Input the city name from the webhook payload into the OpenWeatherMap node to retrieve weather details.
- Send SMS Alerts with Twilio: Configure your Twilio credentials and construct a dynamic message using data from previous nodes, including city name, temperature, humidity, and weather descriptions.
