What it does
Tells you where the weather is currently on google maps in PA. It will judge if certain weather is dangerous if you tell it to, and allow you to also show where certain weather conditions are located. In case of a weather-like emergency, it would show you best places to be to avoid the bad weather.

Accomplishments that we're proud of
Figured out how to use 3 APIs Made a weather service more useful than
What we learned
