You can include a topic within your guide to show the current and forecast weather for your guide location. The default Weather Widget includes the current weather and an hourly forecast for the next 12 hours, and you can also include a 5-day forecast.

How to add the Weather Widget in the new Hub
Open your guidebook's Guidebook Content tab and expand the subcategory you want to add the Weather Widget to.
Click Add Topic to [your subcategory name].
Under Widgets, click Browse widgets, select Weather Widget and click Add.
Give it a title and choose your settings: temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit, wind speed in KMH or MPH, and switch on 5-day forecast if you want it.
Save the topic.
💡 If Weather Widget can't be selected, you already have one somewhere in your content. You can only have one.
How to add the Weather Widget in the legacy Hub
1. Go to Content Hub and scroll to the Subcategory that you want to add the Weather Widget to.
2. Click 'Add Topic' and hover over the Special Topic option. Here you will see the Weather Widget listed as well as other cool Topics you can add to your guide. Click on the Weather Widget option.
3. Now you can customise the widget for your guide location. Give it a title and choose whether to show the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit and wind speeds in either KPH (kilometres per hour) or MPH (miles per hour). Tick Include 5-day forecast if you want the 5-day forecast.
A few things to note
The Weather Widget topic can be renamed, moved and given Tags, the same as any other Topic.
Use the 3 dots to the right hand side of the Weather Widget Topic to change the settings or delete the Topic.
Your guide users will be able to change the temperature and wind speed units to their preference.
You can only have one Weather Widget within your Content Hub/template. This means the Weather Widget will automatically appear in all your guides and will automatically update based on each guide property’s address.
The time shown in the Weather Widget for the hourly forecast is based on local time at the property location, not the device you are viewing from.
Weather data is provided by Accuweather.
