Yo guys!
This app provides data about current coldest canadian cities. The app collects weather information for 350+ cities as small as 3000 inhabitants.
Current weather for each city is updated roughly once per hour. More specifically, the oldest piece of data is updated every 10 seconds.
You can check out the app at http://coldest-canadian-cities.herokuapp.com.
As the new data comes in, the map updates in a reactive manner.
The data is also available through an HTTP API at $API_HOST/cities/coldest/current.
By default, the app uses OpenWeatherMap API.
There is also an alternative data source ready for scraping Government of Canada's weather information.
The code lives here.
It uses Chromeless deployed on AWS Lambda.
