Google’s Pixel Weather app begins testing snowfall forecasts with latest update

Google has recently enhanced its Pixel Weather app with a series of thoughtful updates aimed at improving user experience. The latest version introduces a subtle yet impactful change to the 10-day forecast feature, now displaying both the dates and days of the week, making it easier for users to plan ahead.

Additionally, a new shortcut has been added, allowing users to effortlessly save a new location and showcase it directly on the homepage. This functionality is designed to streamline access to weather information for multiple locations, catering to the needs of users who travel or have interests in various areas.

Snowfall Forecast Feature in Testing

In an exciting development, Google is also testing a snowfall forecast feature within the app, as reported by SmartDroid. This feature, part of the update version 1.0.20250127.729684887, is not yet available to all users, but screenshots indicate that it includes a dedicated snowfall forecast card. This card provides detailed information such as the estimated hourly forecast, snow intensity, and timing, enhancing the app’s utility for those in snowy regions.

Interestingly, this snowfall forecast card is also being integrated into the weather experience of the Google app and in Search, albeit with a slightly different presentation. However, since the feature is still in the testing phase, its readiness for a broader audience remains uncertain. As Google continues to refine this feature, updates will be provided to keep users informed of its availability.

For those eager to take advantage of the latest updates, the Pixel Weather app version 1.0.20250127.729684887 is widely accessible. Users who have opted out of automatic updates can manually download the new version from the Play Store to enjoy these enhancements.
