- afavour 3y agoQuite the opposite. I bike the kids to school every morning. The weather is too important to be summed up by a voice summary, I need the hour by hour details.
- danielbln 3y agoI can ask Alexa e.g. "what's the weather at 9am", that doesn't work with Google Assistant?
- riversflow 3y agoNot OP, but I want to see an hour by hour forecast for the day. If there is precip, I want to see an animated active radar view, with forecast frames. “What’s the weather @ time” is inadequate. I live in California(albeit not on the coast or in the valley).
- achates 3y ago"The weather in Nijmegen is..."
- esafak 3y agoAlso fails when you live in a town that has homonyms, so it can fail even when it correctly hears the word. Wrong country, that's all!
- aworks 3y agoI tried this and Alexa replied: The temperature in Nyagen, Russia is current -31 degrees... I'm an American but I've been to Nijmegen so I think my pronunciation was ok.
- afavour 3y agoI dunno, I’ve never tried. It’s just one of those scenarios where I find the visual is a much more useful medium.
- SketchySeaBeast 3y agoYou can definitely do that.
- ilzmastr 3y agoFunny but true, its usually a front page story in the Chronicle if it is going to rain during the week
- guyzero 3y agoI live in California and it's still my most-used feature. I gotta know if I need to dress for 17C or 19C.
