With your Google Nest or Home speaker or display, you can listen to the current weather and upcoming forecast for your location using only your voice.
Step 1. Manage your weather settings
You must set the following location and weather preferences in the Google Home app to get relevant weather information:
- Set your device address.
- Set your preferred weather unit.
Step 2. Ask for weather information
Here are some ways to talk with your Google Assistant on your speaker or display about weather and forecasts:
To do this: | Say "Hey Google," then: |
---|---|
Ask for the current weather at your device's home address | "What's the weather?" |
Ask for the weather forecast at your device's home address for:
|
"What's the weather tomorrow?" "What's the weather for [specific day]?" "What's the weather this weekend?" "What's the weather for the next [number] days?" "What will the weather be like between [day] and [day]?" |
Ask specific questions about the weather or forecast at your device's home address | "Is it going to rain tomorrow?" "Is it sunny today?" "Will I need an umbrella tomorrow?" |
Ask specific question about weather or forecast in a certain location for:
|
"Will it rain tomorrow [in location]?" "What's the weather this weekend [at location]?" |
Ask for general weather in a certain location | "What's the weather [in location]?" |
Specify unit | "What's the weather in [unit]?" |
- âHey Google, how is the weather?" Your speaker or display will provide weather information from your device address.
- âHey Google, what is the weather in Mountain View?â Speaker or display will provide weather information from the location you specified.
