Ask HN: Would you pay to get daily, weather-focused clothing recommendations?

As I'm a man I only own one coat. Your entire app would just be;

return (temp < 19 || rain==true) ? "Take the coat" : "Don't take the coat.";

I don't think I'd pay very much for that.

Not me personally. I can easily check the temperature on my phone and figure out the clothes i need. However, an interesting service would be to warn the user once outside but with improper clothing. So if i did not check the weather and got out wearing T-shirts in 30 degrees F, then warn me. may be a pop-up on my phone ? I might buy that app for $0.99 on the appstore.

I doubt people will pay for that, I actually launched something similar over the weekend http://hkelkar.com/2013/10/27/how-i-built-a-weather-decision...

Upon further thoughts, I would want something which gives me a prediction for travel planning like..

'What is the weather in Barcelona in December?'

I realize that sometimes the answer might be simple if it is a more consistent climate, but some average would be nice.

Living in southern california not really. However if I went on a hike, I would want weather analysis in a given hour range (I got stuck in a hailstorm in Yosemite recently). But that would be a less frequent use case.

I don't think there's much commercial potential in that one I'm afraid. Personally I just look out the window before deciding what to wear.

Certainly not, but I'm probably not your target audience :) .

I would not pay for that. A weather application is enough for me.

Not as described, but it might work if it was travel focused.

No, it's pretty simple to figure out what to wear just looking out the window and seeing what the weather is...

Absolutely, no.

no to both questions. As others have mentioned though, not really your target audience
