Niagara Beaches

Fetch the latest Niagara beach monitoring data. Includes CLI!

This is a small package that can be used to fetch the latest beach monitoring data for beaches in the Niagara Region. It includes a CLI so you can check the water quality and temperatures for each beach from your terminal.

The beaches reported on here are NOT monitored year-round and the feed that this package pulls from can be changed or discontinued at any time so check the dates as data may be stale.

History of this Package

This was one of the first projects I made in NodeJS. It's a toy project and not to be relied upon. It's updated very infrquently.
