Today we officially launched Umbrella Today - the “simplest weather report ever”. Enter your zip code and then your cell phone number to get a text message on days that you should bring an umbrella with you — it’s as simple as that.

The actual deploy to production occurred live during our talk at the Lone Star Ruby Conference as part of a training session. More information on training sessions can be found here.
