detail.loadingPreview
Stay updated with the weather effortlessly. This workflow fetches real-time weather forecasts based on your location and delivers them directly to your Slack channel.
About This Workflow
Never miss a weather update again with this intuitive n8n workflow. It leverages powerful APIs to fetch hyper-local weather information and seamlessly integrates with Slack. Start by sending a location via a webhook, which is then translated into coordinates using OpenStreetMap. These coordinates are used to query the National Weather Service (NWS) for detailed forecast data. The workflow then formats this data into a readable message and sends it directly to your designated Slack channel. It's the perfect way to keep yourself, your team, or your household informed about upcoming weather conditions without manual checks.
Key Features
- Automated Weather Reports: Receive daily or on-demand weather forecasts directly in Slack.
- Location-Based Accuracy: Utilizes OpenStreetMap to pinpoint your exact location for precise forecasts.
- National Weather Service Integration: Access reliable and detailed weather data from a trusted source.
- Customizable Slack Notifications: Send updates to any Slack channel you choose.
- Easy Setup: Simple webhook trigger to initiate the workflow.
How To Use
- Set up the Webhook Node: Configure the 'Webhook' node with a unique path (e.g., 'slack1'). This will be your trigger URL.
- Configure OpenStreetMap: Connect the 'Webhook' node to the 'OpenStreetMap' node. Ensure the 'q' query parameter is set to capture the incoming text from the webhook (e.g.,
={{ $('Webhook').item.json.body.text }}). - Connect to NWS (Points): Link 'OpenStreetMap' to the first 'NWS' node. The URL should dynamically use the latitude and longitude from the OpenStreetMap output.
- Connect to NWS (Forecast): Connect the first 'NWS' node to the 'NWS1' node. This node will dynamically construct the forecast URL using grid data from the previous NWS call.
- Configure Slack: Connect 'NWS1' to the 'Slack' node. Configure the Slack API credentials and specify the target channel ID. Customize the 'text' parameter to format the weather data as desired using the expression editor.
- Activate the Workflow: Ensure the workflow is active and start sending location text to your webhook URL.
