Or you could look out the window

Google announced today that they’re adding weather to their quick response features. Just type in “weather” and the zip code or address you’re interested in to get an update about the current conditions as well as a three day forecast above the regular SERPs. It’s neat and clean but not as nice as AskJeeves’ weather service which offers a seven day forecast, detailed weather conditions and seasonal information as well.

Yahoo also offers a shortcut link to a weather page though not the instant information of AskJeeves or Google. MSN doesn’t have any quick answers as yet but it is almost certainly only a matter of time.
