Pavel Jelic If you were looking for a native Weather app in older versions of macOS, you wouldn't find it. The only mention you would find at most was within the sidebar where a weather widget could be placed, which many of us used. However, to obtain a complete application, it was necessary to reach for a third-party solution. So Apple really took its time with Weather, but we finally got it as part of the recently released macOS Ventura. And it's worth mentioning that the wait was really worth it, because the Weather app on Mac looks really cool. In this article, we will look together at 5 tips in Weather from macOS Ventura that you should know about.

Weather warnings
If there is a threat of some form of extreme weather that we should be aware of, the CHMÚ will issue a so-called weather warning. This can inform the residents of the Czech Republic about high temperatures, fires, storms, floods, hail, ice, heavy snowfall, strong winds, etc. The great news is that you can easily view all these warnings directly in the native Weather application, so you can be up to date . If an alert is in effect for a specific location, it will be displayed at the top of the Extreme Weather tile. Clicking on the tile will then display all alerts if there are more than one declared.

Warning for extreme weather
As I mentioned on the previous page, your native Weather can inform about warnings and extreme weather on Mac. But if that's not enough for you, you can activate an extreme weather alert, where you will always receive a notification in the event of a warning, thanks to which you will have information practically at first hand. To activate this gadget, all you have to do is go to Weather, then tap on in the top bar Weather → Settings. Here it is enough to simply have activated an extreme weather warning, either at the current location or at one of the favorites. As for alerts with hourly rainfall forecasts, unfortunately they are not available here.

Rain radar
In the Weather application, you will of course find all the basic information about the weather in a specific place, i.e. temperature and more. However, there is also extended information in the form of the UV index, sunrise and sunset times, wind strength, precipitation intensity, perceived temperature, humidity, visibility, pressure, etc. But it does not end there, as a precipitation radar is now also available in Weather, which you can find always at a specific place a tile Precipitation.
