Notis

Give each weather planning period its own Dropbox folder

Keep forecast notes easy to find by starting each planning period with a clean folder.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create folder

Create a folder to organize files.

Why this helps

Weather notes and related plans can get scattered when each week or event starts without a predictable place to save them.

  • Start each planning period with a consistent place for notes.
  • Avoid manually creating and naming folders.
  • Keep weather-related planning material grouped by date.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AccuWeather and Dropbox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the current AccuWeather outlook as context and create a dated Dropbox folder for the upcoming planning period.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and check the folder name and location in Dropbox.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating the folder also create a forecast document?

No. This workflow creates the folder. You can ask Notis to include a separate document only if you want that additional outcome.

Can Notis use a weather period that I specify?

Yes. Include the planning period or naming convention in your instruction, or have Notis derive a date from the scheduled run.
