Weather.com is not working on my MacBook Air. It quit about a week ago. I like being able to see the date and temperature when I turn on my computer. Is there something I can do to get it to work again? I'm using Safari, and don't want to switch to a different browser. I don't like Chrome or Firefox as well.
MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.14
The Dashboard Weather widget has not been working for quite some time. Nothing you can do about it, except use the weather extension in the Notification panel's Today section, or bookmark a local weather station on your Safari Favorite's panel, so that it is one click away.
System Preferences : Extensions : Today : [√] Weather. Then click the ⁝☰ symbol in the upper-right corner of the menu bar, and the Today panel if not already selected. Configure the weather tool as needed.
There are several, free weather applications in the Mac App Store that may provide an alternative for you.

FWIW, it has nothing to do with your Mac. The weather widget has been flaky for several weeks now and hasn't worked at all for a couple. Apparently it may have to do with changes to the server.
FWIW, the Dashboard will no longer exist in the next version of macOS.
Hello CarolR1,
Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with accessing a webpage. I will be happy to check this out with you.
1. Please start with the troubleshooting in this help article: If you can't open a website in Safari on Mac - Apple Support
2. This help article has more troubleshooting to check also: If Safari doesn't load a page or webpage items are missing - Apple Support
Thanks and have a wonderful day.
Thank you sterling r. I wasn't clear as to what I was asking. It's the weather on the initial sign-up page of my MacBook Air. It's the page where it has the calculator, clock, calendar and weather. The weather part of that isn't working now. I'm sorry I didn't state that clearly.
Thank you very much Viking OSX.
Thank you dialabrain. I'm disappointed that the Dashboard will go away. I look at it frequently.
You're welcome. Personally I never use it but I do understand others do.
