Weather

This little widget shows a handy current-conditions display for your city (or any other city), and, at your option, even offers a six-day forecast.

Before you get started, the most important step is to tap the button at the lower-right corner. The widget flips around.

On the back panel, shown below on the right, you can delete the sample city (Cupertino, California, which is Apple's headquarters) by tapping and then Delete. And you can add your own city, or cities of interest, by tapping . The Add Location screen and keyboard appear, so you can type your city and state or Zip code. You can rearrange the sequence of cities by dragging the grip strips up or down.

Tip
