What it does
Many sites have readers who care about the weather: travelers planning a trip, locals checking the day ahead, or visitors to an outdoor venue. Sending them off to a separate weather service takes them away from your content. This plugin keeps that information on your own pages, showing current conditions such as temperature, humidity and air pressure, plus a forecast for the location you choose anywhere in the world.
Setup centers on the location and the display. You enter a place name, ZIP code or GPS coordinates, then choose between hourly and daily forecasts. Temperature can show in Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin, and the display language can match your audience. For styling, you can use weather-themed backgrounds or set your own background color. The widget is responsive and retina ready, so it reads clearly on desktop, tablet and mobile screens.
Best for
- Travel blogs and tourism sites
- Local news and community websites
- Outdoor venues, resorts and event sites

Questions about Elfsight Weather CC
Can I show the weather for a small town or a specific spot?
Yes. Along with city names, you can enter a ZIP code or exact GPS coordinates. Coordinates are handy for places that a city name would not pinpoint well, such as a campground, a beach or a venue outside town.
What weather details does the widget display?
It shows current conditions including temperature, humidity and air pressure, along with the current weather. You can also present a forecast in either hourly or daily format, depending on how far ahead your visitors need to look.
Will it work for readers outside the United States?
It supports multiple display languages and lets you show temperatures in Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin. That makes it practical for sites with international readers or for sites based outside the US.
Can I make the widget match my site's colors?
Yes. You can choose one of the weather-themed backgrounds or set a custom background color, so the widget fits in with your existing design instead of looking out of place.
