Weather Tube Report displays the weather condition and a selection of videos from YouTube, based on the zip code you enter. The videos are selected on the fly based on predetermined search parameters. The weather condition dictates these parameters – which include musical styles and instruments – to search for suitable videos. The weather condition also determines the background color.

The name is inspired by the band Weather Report and some of their song names are used to produce the gibberish text to display the temperature and condition.

Weather Tube Report uses the Yahoo! Weather API to retrieve weather information, the YouTube API to retrieve videos and a database to store the search parameters.

Built with PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS and jQuery.
