This is a script that sends a telegram notification via a bot to notify users when wind is good for kiteboarding in Monciskes. Data is taken from the wind station provided by juraspot.lt.
Wind is checked every 30 minutes and a notification is sent when:
- wind speed is between 6.5 and 13.5 m/s
- wind direction is on-shore (180°-0°)
- the sun is up :)
Download and install Telegram messaging app on your device: https://telegram.org/
In the search field type monciskes-wind
to find the bot and start a conversation.
Click START
in the conversation window to enable the bot.
Or you can simply find the bot clicking on the following link and following the instructions: https://t.me/monciskes_wind_bot
To avoid sending messages to all users during testing a test mode is available via the -q option.
