We all know how useful Google maps is. It can come in handy when we don’t know about a particular location, so instead of reaching the destination by stopping and asking to strangers, we can just open Google maps and can know about the location which we want to reach. But now, here is a new feature of Google maps which can help you know weather forecast too. Thanks to the new weather layer in Google maps.
Weather Forecast in Google Maps
To know the weather forecast across any city in the world using Google maps, hover your mouse over satellite box from the top right corner of the screen and click on Weather layer. Take a look at this screenshot:
In the left sidebar, you can know about temperature in celcius, farenheit, humidity and wind speed of all the visible cities in map. Click on Hide Clouds to hide cloud cover.
You can also click on any city name from map itself and then get complete weather forecast for next few days or hours, with maximum and minimum temperature, cloud cover and rain. Click on 10-day to know about the forecast for next 10 days.
This is quite useful when you want to know about the weather where you are heading to. Let’s say you are going to have a trip today to Disney World, so before heading there, you can first check the weather of that area and then start your journey.
