With Siri, you can find out what the weather is like outside when you wake up in the morning, without even looking out the window. You can also ask for the forecast for the rest of the day and week.
Using Siri to get the current weather conditions
In this article, we trigger Siri using the “Hey Siri” voice command. Did you know there are other methods available, depending on your device? You can read about them all in our how to use Siri guide.
Checking the current weather forecast is very simple. As always, Siri can be activated by pressing the side button or saying ‘Hey Siri’.
Hey Siri, how warm is it going to be today?
Hey Siri, is there a chance of rain tonight?
To take it even further you can ask whether you’ll need a raincoat or sunglasses, even at specific times of day:
Hey Siri, will I need an umbrella tomorrow morning?
Ask Siri to check the weather in the week ahead
Hey Siri, is it going to be windy this week?
Check the weather around the world
You can check on the detailed weather forecast for any location around the world, and you can also specify whether you want the results to display in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Hey Siri, how hot is it in New York in Fahrenheit?
Ask Siri for sunset and sunrise times
Hey Siri, what time is sunset tonight?
Hey Siri, what time is sunset in Sydney Australia tonight?
As you can see, Siri can understand informal questions about the weather, and give accurate answers. Usually offering a casual opinion of its own.
Rather than answering with the temperature Siri asks “for what location?” On my iPhone Siri doesn’t ask this, it just gives me the temperature.
