Is It Raining? – A Simple Rainfall Detection Web and Mobile Application Using Open Weather API

This project focuses on developing a lightweight and user-friendly rainfall detection application titled “Is It Raining?”. The application is built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a mobile interface using Flutter. It fetches real-time weather data from the OpenWeather API to determine whether it is currently raining at a user’s location. The system displays a simple YES/NO rainfall status along with additional parameters such as humidity, temperature, and rainfall percentage. The goal of the application is to make weather checking faster and more intuitive. Testing showed highly accurate results, with weather estimates aligning closely with live conditions. The project demonstrates how APIs can be used to create simple, accessible, and cross-platform weather tools.

Abstract

This project focuses on developing a lightweight and user-friendly rainfall detection application titled “Is It Raining?”. The application is built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a mobile interface using Flutter. It fetches real-time weather data from the OpenWeather API to determine whether it is currently raining at a user’s location. The system displays a simple YES/NO rainfall status along with additional parameters such as humidity, temperature, and rainfall percentage. The goal of the application is to make weather checking faster and more intuitive. Testing showed highly accurate results, with weather estimates aligning closely with live conditions. The project demonstrates how APIs can be used to create simple, accessible, and cross-platform weather tools.
