If you are curious to know if it’s raining in any particular city of the world, then you have an online application for it. Just type type IsItRaining.in/
This shows you the current conditions of Chennai. The answer will be binary form, YES or NO. This tool also tells you the current weather conditions of the particular city or state.
You can refine search results by adding the name of a State / Country after the name of the city, e.g.: http://isitraining.in/Cadiz-Spain or http://isitraining.in/Las-Vegas-New-Mexico.
The current weather forecast is from Yahoo Weather using Yahoo! Query Language with PHP; the results are then cached for half hour after the first request.
haha its is very helpful for the whether forcasters hehe 😛
Cool share friend, will check this, in my area now raining 🙂
No its not as the tool is internally powered by Yahoo! Weather and caches results for 30 minutes so it may not give the real-time conditions always.
dude,
this is a fake site, lol it says partly cloudy for my city where the temperature is so high
No its not but as the tool is internally powered by Yahoo! Weather and caches results for 30 minutes so it may not give the real-time conditions always.
Well no offense intended but I think it’s a useless service 🙂 I mean, why would I ever like to know if it is raining NOW in any city. All that people would look for is what would be the forecast for any city in a few hours/days.
Having said that, it’s good programming learning experience probably for those who have wrote it.. For practical purposes, we can use Yahoo weather..
Again, it’s not any bashing to any young developers behind the idea. But building on some real useful ideas can take them up there.
Great tool, Friends cant lie about raining… 🙂
This is a really nifty and simplistic tool. I found that using commas instead of dashes works fine too. I wish I knew somewhere where it was raining for sure, just so I could check it.
Hi Pradeep,
Thanks for bringing such a useful and nice application to my notice. It will be interesting to know how the information is being collected.
Wow thats absolutely brilliant….It actually works …
Very innovative thoughts…. Why I don’t get ideas like that ?

Bollywood directors are surely going to use it to shoot the next romantic song in the natural rain 😛 lolzz 😀

I generally dislike weather forecast applications, but this idea is rather genius. Simple and effective, thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Hehe, this service looks just like http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
When I looked at images I thought you are sharing information related to ISI because it was looking like ISI+Training. 🙂 But your title is IS+IT+Raining .. Thanks for sharing this website 🙂 Good to know about this site.
This is a cool website and a bit useful too…. if we are not it our city and we would like to know is it raining in our city

Good one. The coolest thing about this tool is it gives weather forecast in one word ;). 3 days ago i published the same thing in my blog – Check Raining Status of Your City.
