Google Now makes weather card available as a shortcut on your home screen

Enrique, 23 March, 2016

Google has made a couple of tweaks lately, including the improvement of Google Now’s speech reply sounding more natural and the improvement of Google Now on Tap.

Google would like you to use its app more and more to incorporate it into your daily life with contextual information such as traffic conditions, public transit notifications, and something that Google Now has already been doing which is notifying you of a drastic change in the weather forecast for the next day.

Today, Google started rolling out another feature which can be activated by simply making a Google search for “weather [insert location here]”. Upon searching for such a query, the Google app will ask you if you would like to add a short cut for the weather on your home screen.

I love Google’s new weather interface and I’m glad they decided to make it easier to access. Who thinks Google should add more shortcuts to Google Now cards from the home screen?

I Accidentally said no to the shortcut and now I can't figure out how to get the option to come up again. I've tried everything I could think of but cannot figure out how to activate it so I can get the shortcut. Any ideas? Thanks!
