It seems to me that if it is that easy the local weather forecasters should be able to do a better job than what they actually do. Maybe you should offer to do their job for them. :)
It's much more difficult for local weather forecasters to do their job than it is for an app to tell me if it will rain on my location in the next ten minutes and how long that rain will last.
The local weather forecaster must determine the probabilities of rain throughout the entire day or days even if a storm front is nowhere near the area. In addition, the forecasters' area is several orders of magnitude greater than the point in space my app is looking at. The forecaster must predict fog, temperature, snow vs rain, humidity, wind speeds, etc.
My app does a very basic thing on a hyper local basis and it does it very well.
