Is It Gonna Rain? is a Chrome extension that answers one simple question: how likely is it to rain in the next hour where you are?
Provide a five-digit U.S. zip code, and the extension will query a dedicated API that in turn talks to Google's Geocoding API to grab coordinates.
These coordinates are then fed to the Dark Sky API, and the results of that query are crunched to tell you whether you should bring an umbrella when you go out to lunch.
There are four possible responses:
"It's not gonna rain": there is a less-than-10% probability that it will rain in the provided zip code in the next hour
"It could rain": the probability that it will rain in the provided zip code in the next hour is between 10% and 50%
"It's gonna rain": the probability that it will rain in the provided zip code in the next hour is greater than 50%
"It's like, raining": the probability that it will rain in the next minute (or hour, if minute-by-minute precision isn't available in your zip code) is greater than 90%

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
