MMM-RAIN-RADAR

• Inspired by and Replica of the MMM-ISS-Live module by Mykle1

• Displays the Rain Viewer map of RainRadar instead of ISS live

A real time animated map showing real time movement of precipitations. This module also uses the US Government Weather API to get active weather alerts in a given US State. This API does not require any authentication as of this date 05/30/2019.

Example

Installation

• git clone https://github.com/jojoduquartier/MMM-RAIN-RADAR.git into the ~/MagicMirror/modules directory.

Future Updates

• Use US Weather warnings to hide/show radar Done
• Directly get lat and lon and set as default Please Provide Lat and Lon
• Provide a list of precipitation related warnings so that module is update accordignly
