Rain and heavy rain are different and so are the icons.
You should be able to glance at the weather icons and tell how the day ahead will turn out.
So, Apple has published a handy chart explaining the iPhone weather icons.
Touse the Weather app, enter the name of a city, zip code, or airport.
pick the location to see the hourly forecast followed by the 10-day forecast.
A weather icon is displayed next to each hour and day.
Apple has covered most weather conditions.
However, the weather icons displayed on the screen will depend on the location that’s been chosen.
For instance, many places worldwide dont experience hurricanes or tornadoes.
Other Apps Use Different Weather Symbols
The Weather app is built into the iPhone.
The symbols listed above are used by that app.
But, here’s a tip: most of these icons are self-explanatory.
See a rainy icon?
Clouds mean the sun is hidden and so it’s a bit darker out.
Wavy lines by themselves refer to wind.
You get the idea.
This is how all weather apps work.
Some even say the weather condition next to the icon so there’s no guesswork.
