Quite a temperature variation, actually, but that’s another story! Well, it doesn’t show thee current temperature, just the forecast for today: A low of 41F and a high of 83F. I have the date and time, why can’t I have the weather too? Crazy, man.Īs you pointed out, you can indeed just jump over to the Start menu: To start out, my Taskbar, sans weather information: In this case, WeatherEye is available through Softonics as a free download, but let’s see what’s available first, in case you decide you’ll live with the current situation. Would I rather have something directly from Microsoft so I know there’s nothing worrying about the app? Definitely. Years ago I wrote about using an app called Weatherbug to accomplish this task – Show temperature on your PC Taskbar with Weatherbug – but that’s no longer available as far as I can tell.įortunately there’s an alternative third party weather app from The Weather Channel called WeatherEye. You could just leave it open on your Desktop, of course, but then it’s cluttering up the screen for a single digit you want to view now and again, so that’s not super efficient.

Surprisingly, the Microsoft Windows Weather app offers a beautiful interface to this important information, but somehow doesn’t offer the ability to show the temperature directly on the Taskbar.
