Get IFTTT notification when Ambient Weather detects rain
How this automation works
Monitor your local weather with Ambient Weather and trigger an automated web request when it gets too hot. This Applet runs when the outdoor temperature rises above your specified value, sending a Webhooks request to your chosen endpoint. It’s perfect for starting cooling systems, sending alerts, or logging high-temperature events in your smart home. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
