Creating a Weather app

1. Go to Content > Add > New app and search for the Weather app.
2. Click the app to start creating a new app.
3. Enter an app name.
4. Pick a Weather location (latitude and longitude).
5. Pick a Layout:

No API key needed

Lumicast handles the weather data API for you — you don't need an OpenWeatherMap account.

Custom weather backgrounds

You can optionally upload a different background image for each weather condition (thunderstorm, rain, drizzle, snow, mist, etc.). Enable Customize background images? and upload media for the conditions you care about — Lumicast falls back to the built-in background for anything you leave blank.
