Introduction

Welcome to my repo for my weather dashboard. This is a web-based weather data accumulator that helps fetch easily glance-able data about any major city by just entering its name. You can see current stats such as temperature and a color coded UV Index as well as a concise 5 day forecast.

Instructions

  • Enter a city name in the Search box to search. (Due to API limitations, not all cities will be available.)
  • Click on the color coded UV Index button to open a guide for the color and values of UV Indices.
  • Use the city buttons under the "Previously" section to look up a previously searched city.
  • Use the 'clear' button to clear all previously searched city buttons and your local storage.
