How to get an alarm / warning when it starts to rain How can I be alerted if the weather changes? For example, if it starts raining, I will receive an alarm / warning?  This would obviously be based on some local weather feed, rather than actually detecting rain.

It would be useful because sometimes I have windows open for drying clothes and stuff, and from the room I am normally in one does not notice immediately when it starts raining.   It would be very useful.
This isn't an Android solution, but I think it will work for you.
