Weather based notification systems and methods for home automation
First Claim
1. An apparatus for generating weather related notices with a home automation system, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
a memory in electronic communication with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to;
determine a difference between a first set of weather conditions associated with a home and a second set of weather conditions associated with the home;
determine a priority for the first set of conditions or the second set of weather conditions based at least in part on a source of the first set of weather conditions or a source of the second set of weather conditions;
determine a state of a boundary of the home;
actuate an automated device to physically adjust the boundary based at least in part on the determined set of weather conditions and the determined state of the boundary;
generate a message based at least in part on the first and the second sets of weather conditions, the determined priority, the determined state of the boundary, and the actuating of the automated device; and
transmit the generated message to a wireless device of a user.

Abstract
Methods and systems are described for generating weather related notices using features of a home automation system. According to at least one embodiment, an apparatus for generating weather related notices with a home automation system includes a processor, a memory in electronic communication with the processor, and instructions stored in the memory. The instructions are executable by the processor to receive weather data about current weather conditions, receive status information about at least one barrier of a property monitored by the home automation system, and generate at least one notice based at least in part on the weather data and the status information.

8. A computer-program product for generating weather condition notices with a home automation system, the computer-program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by a processor to:
-
determine a difference between a first set of weather conditions associated with a home and a second set of weather conditions associated with the home; determine a priority for the first set of conditions or the second set of weather conditions based at least in part on a source of the first set of weather conditions or a source of the second set of weather conditions; determine a state of a boundary of the home based at least in part on the determined set of weather conditions; actuate an automated device to physically adjust the boundary based at least in part on the determined set of weather conditions and the determined state of the boundary; generate a message based on the first and the second sets of weather conditions, the determined priority, the determined state of the boundary, and the actuating of the automated device; and transmit the generated message to a wireless device of a user. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer-implemented method for processing weather information with a home automation system, comprising:
-
determining a difference between a first set of weather conditions associated with a home and a second set of weather conditions associated with the home by the home automation system; determining a priority for the first set of conditions or the second set of weather conditions based at least in part on a source of the first set of weather conditions or a source of the second set of weather conditions; determining a state of a boundary of the home by the home automation system based at least in part on the determined set of weather conditions; actuating an automated device to physically adjust the boundary based at least in part on the determined set of weather conditions and the determined state of the boundary; generating a message based on the first and the second sets of weather conditions, the determined priority, the determined state of the boundary, and the actuating of the automated device; and transmitting the generated message to a wireless device of a user. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
