About This Weather Project
Nationwide weather, reimagined with a creative twist
What This Is
This is a daily national weather service — but not the kind you’re used to. It blends real forecast data with the storytelling power of AI to deliver a short, friendly summary of the UK's weather each day, along with a unique image that captures the spirit of it.
Each day brings:
- A conversational forecast summary that captures national trends and regional differences
- A unique, AI-generated image inspired by the day's conditions
- An archive of past forecasts to explore and enjoy
How It Works
Here’s what happens behind the scenes:
- Forecast data is gathered daily from locations across the UK using a reliable national weather API.
- ChatGPT interprets the data and writes a clear, friendly summary — just like a TV or radio presenter might.
- DALL·E, a visual AI model, generates a fresh scene based on the day’s weather and time of year — anything from misty city mornings to windswept coastal paths.
- Custom code stitches everything together and updates the site automatically each morning.
It's a bit like having your own virtual weather team — one with an eye for scenery.
Why?
Because the UK’s weather is more than just numbers and icons. It’s a shared daily experience — and this project aims to capture that with a bit more character, colour, and curiosity than the usual forecast.
