AccuWeather, known for its accurate weather predictions will now recommend you places to visit based on the weather conditions.
The company is partnering with Foursquare for a hyper-local recommendation system that will take into account the current weather conditions when leading you to new destinations, Engadget reported. The idea is to recommend you a coffee shop if you want to shelter from the rain or a beach on a hot day.
As privacy is a major concern these days, the feature will be opt-in for sharing your location data. However, it will leave scope for in-app advertising which may, again, be quite intrusive for users.
