WeatherBot gets alerts
code
• March 5, 2017
I didn’t expect WeatherBot to become a series of posts, but the weather has been fluctuating so much scary.
WeatherBot has severe weather alerts now:

How it works
- If any alerts occur in the request, then loop through them.
- Get the title, start, expiration date, and link to the alert.
- Check the severity of the alert and assign an emoji (advisory
, watch
, warning
).
- Post to Slack.
I’m looking forward to using this bot as a reminder to open up my laptop and stay inside .
