Show HN: Dropory – Find the sunniest day of the year for any location
- JumpinJack_Cash 3y agoRainless and Sunniest are two different things. Also rainless is more important so if this is your website just say rainless
- Vagantem 3y agoFair! It’s just so hard to say rainless as a catchy title so figured sunniest would work but you’re right, they are different - will have to work on the copy
- JumpinJack_Cash 3y agoIf you are interested in expanding the definition to 'sunniest' there are some WMO/NOAA stations which measure cloud cover in octaves (where 0/8 is completely sunny and 8/8 is totally cloudy) A cool indipendent small website that has a summary is ogimet.com Here is a summary of Chicago O Hare WMO/NOAA Station no. 72530: https://www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?lang=en&ord=REV&ndays=30&ano=2023&mes=11&day=15&hora=18&ind=72530 https://www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?lang=en&ord=REV&ndays...

- Vagantem 3y agoI’ve been in the weather space a bit now when developing https://dropory.com https://dropory.com, a free service that lets you find the date with the least rain in the last 10 years - for any location. Good for finding a dry event or wedding date. An FYI: It can take up to 10 min to generate a report - I had a spinner before but people just left the page. So I implemented email as a way to send the report. I’ve never used the emails addresses for anything else than that. If you don’t want to leave your email, try it with a 10 min disposable email address. All feedback welcome!
