Hi everyone,
This is a first time Linux user coming straight from windows. I have been using windows all my life but I am leaning towards learning Linux as my secondary OS and would like to know how can I add weather displayed near within the taskbar. I tried searching this forum and also googling but didn't find any relevant information.
I would appreciate if someone can tell me how to achieve this.
Kind regards,
Shahzad S.
sudo apt install gnome-weather

Hey there thanks for sharing the extension but since I am a windows user, I am used to of seeing the weather on the corner of the screen without clicking or hovering, for example this screenshot:
I came across an applet in Linux Mint which lets me achieve the same but can't make that happen in ZorinOS. Any help is appreciated
Thanks
I assume you're talking about cinnamon-weather?
It should work on Zorin OS.
There's also an app that changes your background image to reflect the weather:

... and how to set it up:
Hey there,
I appreciate the help and resources that you provided but what I am trying to achieve is in the below screenshot:
and the method to install this is:
Right-click on the taskbar > Add Applets > Search "weather" > add the first template - Done!
but I can't find similar options when I right-click on my current Zorin taskbar, any ideas on how to achieve the same in Zorin OS?
That's literally the image for Cinnamon Weather.
Download it here.
Gday @ShahzadShahab ,
Download " Meteo " from 'software'.
In preferences, enable "Use system tray icon"
Hope this help's
Since the weather forecasts have been unreliable lately, I've started opening a real window when I want to know weather.
I just tried Meteo. It's 9 degree Celsius lower than local: it shows 27 here in Upington whereas the local shows it's 36.
Are you sure it isn't a "feels like" 27!
I'm afraid I can't help on this one. Zorincs own Weather App (gnome-weather) has problems with lications but somebody posted a solution for that.
Personally I prefer the Plasma Desktop and its weather widget which is more compact and I use wetter.com for the data for my location.
Believe me, it definitely is not "feels like" 27! 
(at least, that's what the sweat and fan make me believe)
