Google has just released a really cool feature built into its search engine that allows you to check the weather of any desired U.S. location. It’s another simple, easy to use feature from Google that even geeks can use.

To check the weather in Birmingham, AL, you would simply type “weather birmingham, al” in the Google search box. That will bring up the weather for that particular day, as well as the next three days. Giving you the predicted weather for a grand total of four days.

To check the weather in your location, you would simply type “weather” followed by your location.

Usually a city name will be enough, but you may also want to include a state or zipcode. For example, to see Palo Alto weather, you could search for “weather palo alto, ca” or “weather palo alto 94301.”

If you’re the type that usually misses the local news, now in replacement of going to a weather website, you can check it out right from your home page - that is, if Google is your home page.
