IBM × The Weather Channel

Allergies

What do the weather and allergies have in common? A lot more than you think.

That’s why IBM teamed up with The Weather Channel to develop an entirely new kind of forecast—a hyper-local allergy forecast to help people do the impossible and get their allergies under control.

We ran a series of geo-targeted social and DOOH ads around the country (with a hint of local linguistic flavor) to help people see the real-time allergy risk at their current location to drive home the connection between weather and allergies.

In DOOH…

We created a series of living DOOH boards that would reflect real-time allergy levels in a specific location. Animated particles represent levels of allergies in the area.

Low Allergy Levels

Moderate Allergy Levels

High Allergy Levels

In Airports…

We used placements to reflect the real-time allergy levels at each destination according to flight departures that day.

On Social…

We created a series of geo-targeted ads for a hyper-local allergy forecast with a little local flavor.

National Message

Austin

San Francisco

New York

In Film…

For The Weather Channel landing page, we created a short video taking visitors deeper into the innovation story.
