Google Maps Features Weather Channel Data
By Reshma Kumar at January 12, 2008 1 CommentsGoogle Maps has teamed up with The Weather Channel to integrate weather details. So, if you’re planning a trip and don’t know whether to pack your Uggs or Oxfords, you can simultaneously get the weather information for your intended destination along with the directions.
From Google.com, type a city name, for example, and click “Google Search” and select “Maps” from the top left or from the search results. From Google Maps, click on the “My Maps” tab and check the option for “The Weather Channel” under the Featured Content section. And voila! You get the overall lay of the land and corresponding temperatures. Click on the temperature bubble on the map for your location of choice and out pops the forecast compliments of weather.com. You can also filter your results further for specific weather overlays, points of interests (cities, airports, etc.), and temperature settings (celsius or fahrenheit).
