Why use this?

Always Visible

Current temperature sits in the notch on every desktop and full-screen app. No widget panel to open, no menu bar item to find.

Hourly Forecast on Tap

Click to expand and see the next several hours plus the day's high and low. Closes back to compact when you're done.

Location-Aware

Uses your Mac's location services to show local weather automatically. Travel and the forecast updates with you.

Severe Weather Peek

When conditions change sharply, the notch peeks to surface the alert. You catch the storm warning before stepping out.

How it works

  1. Allow location access

    Grant seam access to your Mac's location once during setup. The forecast pulls automatically from there.

  2. Glance at the notch

    Temperature and a condition icon stay in compact mode while you work. No clicks needed to check the weather.

  3. Expand for the forecast

    Click the notch to see the hourly outlook and the day's range. Click anywhere else to dismiss.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Mac weather widget? +
If you want the forecast visible while you work, seam puts it in the MacBook notch where it stays glanceable on every desktop. Apple's Weather widget only shows up when you open Notification Center. Carrot Weather and Menu Weather Pro live in the menu bar, which works but takes up a slot you may want for something else.
Does seam show the forecast or just current conditions? +
Both. The compact view shows current temperature and the condition icon. Expand the notch and you get the hourly forecast plus the day's high and low. No separate window or widget panel.
Where does the weather data come from? +
seam pulls from Apple's WeatherKit service, the same source Apple uses for the built-in Weather app. Updates are accurate and refreshed regularly without draining battery.
Will it follow me when I travel? +
Yes. With location access enabled, the forecast updates automatically as your Mac's location changes. Land somewhere new and the notch reflects the local conditions within minutes.
Can I disable the weather feature? +
Yes. Every feature in seam can be toggled independently from Settings. Turn weather off and the notch reclaims that slot for whatever else you use.
