Help Create A Weather App That Everyone Needs
Avtech

Often a time, I look at the weather forecast and see what the temperature for that day entails. However, upon finishing getting ready and venturing out the door, I am awestruck with a completely different feel than what I expected. I mean even today, a regular Thursday, I looked at the forecast and it said high 40's... so like any normal New Englander, I put on some pants and a light jacket. The flaw in this decision wasn't necessarily the temperature though, it had everything to do with the wind, which was extremely powerful and almost unbearably cold. Long story short, I looked at the weather and was misguided as to how I could properly prepare myself for the day. So, where am I going with this?

Alright, my group from class and I are creating an app based on the relationship between the weather forecast and what people should wear. We want to ensure everyday users that our suggestions of what to put on for the day are on point and in relation to the latest trends. We have two versions: one tailored for the public which is free and the second targeted towards those that are willing to pay under a dollar for premium features.

The overall function of this app is to give a detailed weather forecast along with an outfit that guides the user with what to wear, depending on climate, wind chill, precipitation, etc. Of course the app is not yet ready, but we hope to work with clothing companies to have a display of their clothes. Anyhow, this is public version of the app. If there are any comments or ideas that you have or would possibly like in order to make the app better, we are more than willing to take them.

Within the app, there will be advertisements offering for the premium version, or upgrade. What we plan to do with this is link our already existing clothing companies into your personalized account. That being said, you will be able to customize your style be selecting outifts and types of clothes that you enjoy. Upon doing so, our app will generate a customized "closet" for you. So let's say you see an outifit you absolutely love from American Eagle: you will then have the opportunity to select the items you want, such as a cute romper for a hot summer day, and it will automatically give you access to deals for that particular store. Keep in mind that these deals are from our app, not store discounts. Furthermore, the upgrade will hopefully parnter with snapchat so that you and other friends can upload your outfits onto both apps just to see what others are wearing. Of course, the app is not yet finished, but we ask that if you have any suggestions or ideas of interest, let us know! We are eager to find out whether there would be a vast amount of users or not.

Thank you so much! My group and I are excited to hear from you!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
