blind to the weather

My usual, trusty weather gauge is me looking out a window and taking an educated guess. Therefore, I created a Processing sketch that moved “window blinds” in a manner similar to a weather vane. Pulling the data from the Yahoo RSS feed, it visualizes in real time both temperature and wind speed by mapping the blinds’ color from blue (coldest) to red (hottest) using an HSB color mode, and the blinds’ rotational speed to actual wind speed.
The video shows weather data for New York City and Anchorage, AK.
