My hobby is using Android phones to take weather measurements and hopefully one day, be useful in weather prediction. I make an app that has this feature (along with other ML experiments), US only for now:

I plan to make better visualizations from the data, with the most ideal being an isobar map made just from phone pressure data. Here is an animation (not isobar) of Hurricane Dorian (2019) I made:

All this is done with the open source library I write:

I obviously plan to make more visualizations for Ida once more data is in, and hopefully better ones too. Sorry for the rushed quality, but you know, the storm is landfalling as we speak.
(edit: and yes iPhones have barometers too, but I'm an Android dev so iOS app will take a while).
