WSDot / Ski Report

So, I'm thinking of creating a very simple to start application. The goal would be to get all the weather data points from wsdots passes that have ski resorts on them, and snow level data from nwac and setup alerts based on this.

For example:
If Temperature < 33 degree's alert me
If conditions = snowing, alert me
If conditions = snowing hard, ALERT ME!!!
If pass = closed, alert me.

The goal would be to scrape their site every 5 minutes and pull this data. I already have most of that setup, the question is what type of data would you guys like to see if I did something like this and how would you want the alerts and the format of them?

You can likely get this info from WSDOT API instead of scraping (would be a lot easier to maintain): www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/api/

Holy crap, I didn't know they had a RESTful API we could use to get this data. This is truly awesome and saves me some time
