However, those who use Google Chrome as a browser and appreciate its capabilities that make it almost a parallel operating system made up of integrated web apps, can install one of the extensions to view the weather in real time and the weather forecast of the day at any time. with temperature the current time.
Let's see then the two most interesting extensions to keep the weather under control on Chrome and also on Firefox browser which, in terms of integrated applications, is second to none.

In the lower right corner there are three icons with buttons: the first to view the details of the weather forecast, the second button with gear icon leads to the options of the extension, while the third is the link to the default tab of Chrome, the one from which to launch the most visited applications and sites. In the settings it is possible to change the unit of measurement of the temperature, the city, the clock mode and the colors of the graphic theme which is, objectively, very pleasant to look at and minimalist.
