Simple weather predictor using Gaussian Process modeling on Darksky.net observations
The main goal of this project is to predict a feature of tomorrow's weather using only oberservations of the feature from recent days. This notebook walks through four tasks to predict features of tomorrow's weather.
-
Use the Darksky.net API https://darksky.net/dev/docs/time-machine to download 1 month of hourly data for a given zip code.
-
Convert the JSON data from the Darkskey.net API to a table with "time" as the index. Export the table as a .CSV.
-
For the 1 month of data, find the average, min, and max temperatures and wind speeds of each day. Plot the statistics over time.
-
Predict the windiest hour and the coldest hour of tomorrow.
