Send severe weather alerts from Visual Crossing to Telegram
How it works
This workflow automates the process of fetching weather forecasts for your home location, including severe weather alerts, and sends timely notifications. It uses the Visual Crossing API for detailed weather data and integrates with Telegram (or other messaging services) for messaging and alerts.
Step-by-step
In summary, the workflow runs every hour, grabs the current day's weather conditions for [your city/location of interest], and returns only those items that truly contain one or more weather alerts.
π Step 1: Hourly Trigger The workflow begins with the Hourly Trigger node, which is a scheduleTrigger. This node acts as the clock that initiates the entire process at regular hourly intervals.
π€οΈ Step 2: Fetch Weather Data Immediately after the trigger, the workflow moves to the Meteo node, an httpRequest. This node makes an external API call to fetch weather data for your specified location.
API Used: Visual Crossing Web Services
Authentication: Uses your API key (key=[API KEY])
Response format: JSON
πͺπ Step 3: Check for Severe Weather The JSON weather data output is analyzed, and if severe weather conditions or alerts are detected, the workflow sends the alert via your preferred communication channel(s).
Optional
You can replace the Telegram node with email, WhatsApp, SMS notifications, or add multiple notification nodes to receive severe weather alerts across all desired channels.

This n8n workflow automates the process of fetching severe weather alerts from the Visual Crossing API and sending them as notifications to a specified Telegram chat. It's designed to keep you informed about critical weather conditions in a timely manner.
What it does
- Schedules a Check: The workflow is triggered on a predefined schedule (e.g., every hour) to regularly check for new weather alerts.
- Fetches Weather Data: It makes an HTTP request to the Visual Crossing weather API to retrieve current weather conditions and alerts for a specified location.
- Processes Alerts: A Function node processes the raw API response, extracting relevant severe weather alert information.
- Filters for Severe Alerts: An If node checks if any severe weather alerts are present in the processed data.
- Sends Telegram Notification: If severe alerts are found, a formatted message containing the alert details is sent to a configured Telegram chat.
Prerequisites/Requirements
- n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
- Visual Crossing API Key: An API key from Visual Crossing to access their weather data.

π How to transform unstructured email data into structured format with AI agent
This workflow automates the process of extracting structured, usable information from unstructured email messages across multiple platforms. It connects directly to Gmail, Outlook, and IMAP accounts, retrieves incoming emails, and sends their content to an AI-powered parsing agent built on OpenAI GPT models. The AI agent analyzes each email, identifies relevant details, and returns a clean JSON structure containing key fields: From β senderβs email address To β recipientβs email address Subject β email subject line Summary β short AI-generated summary of the email body The extracted information is then automatically inserted into an n8n Data Table, creating a structured database of email metadata and summaries ready for indexing, reporting, or integration with other tools. --- Key Benefits β Full Automation: Eliminates manual reading and data entry from incoming emails. β Multi-Source Integration: Handles data from different email providers seamlessly. β AI-Driven Accuracy: Uses advanced language models to interpret complex or unformatted content. β Structured Storage: Creates a standardized, query-ready dataset from previously unstructured text. β Time Efficiency: Processes emails in real time, improving productivity and response speed. *β Scalability: Easily extendable to handle additional sources or extract more data fields. --- How it works This workflow automates the transformation of unstructured email data into a structured, queryable format. It operates through a series of connected steps: Email Triggering: The workflow is initiated by one of three different email triggers (Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, or a generic IMAP account), which constantly monitor for new incoming emails. AI-Powered Parsing & Structuring: When a new email is detected, its raw, unstructured content is passed to a central "Parsing Agent." This agent uses a specified OpenAI language model to intelligently analyze the email text. Data Extraction & Standardization: Following a predefined system prompt, the AI agent extracts key information from the email, such as the sender, recipient, subject, and a generated summary. It then forces the output into a strict JSON structure using a "Structured Output Parser" node, ensuring data consistency. Data Storage: Finally, the clean, structured data (the from, to, subject, and summarize fields) is inserted as a new row into a specified n8n Data Table, creating a searchable and reportable database of email information. --- Set up steps To implement this workflow, follow these configuration steps: Prepare the Data Table: Create a new Data Table within n8n. Define the columns with the following names and string type: From, To, Subject, and Summary. Configure Email Credentials: Set up the credential connections for the email services you wish to use (Gmail OAuth2, Microsoft Outlook OAuth2, and/or IMAP). Ensure the accounts have the necessary permissions to read emails. Configure AI Model Credentials: Set up the OpenAI API credential with a valid API key. The workflow is configured to use the model, but this can be changed in the respective nodes if needed. Connect the Nodes: The workflow canvas is already correctly wired. Visually confirm that the email triggers are connected to the "Parsing Agent," which is connected to the "Insert row" (Data Table) node. Also, ensure the "OpenAI Chat Model" and "Structured Output Parser" are connected to the "Parsing Agent" as its AI model and output parser, respectively. Activate the Workflow: Save the workflow and toggle the "Active" switch to ON. The triggers will begin polling for new emails according to their schedule (e.g., every minute), and the automation will start processing incoming messages. --- Need help customizing?
