Weather might not be available in every single area around the globe but for most major locations it should show something here. I could go way up north here and see the forecast there. So I could go up here to Boulder and I could see the changes. The cool thing about Maps is as you move the map around it will change to reflect where you're at. So the Weather Conditions Show Air Quality Index. If you go to Maps Preferences this is where you turn this On or Off. So if you go to Maps, wherever your map is centered you're going to see the weather here at the bottom left. There's on other app that actually brings up weather. So I can go by location or ask for a specific thing like the sunrise time. If I click on the question mark there and I scroll down and look for weather you'll see it give me some suggestions of other things that I could ask. You can also ask for other things like, weather tomorrow. So all you need to do is tell Siri you want the weather. Siri is another built-in way to get weather.

A tap will enlarge that or you can do weather forecast and it brings you there as well. You can go right to it by typing something like weather here and then is shows you this summary there. But if you scroll down enough you'll see just a category right here, Weather. So use Command Space to bring up Spotlight and then if you just search for weather you'll come up with a variety of different things including Apps, Files, and all of that. Now in addition to Notification Center you can use Spotlight to bring up weather. You can also go into Keyboard, Shortcuts, and under Mission Control there's Show Notification Center and you can set a keyboard shortcut and activate it. If you're using a trackpad under More Gestures there's a Notification Center swipe that you can turn on and use that. The Notification Center is easy to bring up by clicking here on the time or in System Preferences you can set two other ways to get to it. So now you get a quick view of the weather at the top and scroll down to see more. Switch to the Large on and add that to the bottom. I could have the small one here at the top. So here we can go to Weather on the left there. Just like before Control clicking or two-finger click on the trackpad, right click on the mouse and change the size. You can click on this and change location. You can do lots of different things here. Also, of course, if you go in and select Edit Widgets you're in Edit Widget mode. Just click on the location there and search for the town that you're in or something close by. Control Click on it and Edit at the top there to change the location. You could also change it to Large and then you get a list of hours and the forecast for the next few days. You could see it gives you a few hours into the future.
