by 29 comments

Microsoft has issued an update to Cortana’s Live Tile enabling users to have a quick glance at the current weather in their area.

The tile for the voice-activated digital personal assistant now shows a small weather animation (see video below), and flips to reveal weather-related information, including temperature.

The update comes amid reports that Cortana will soon speak and understand several new languages, including Brazilian Portugese, Russian, German, Spanish Spanish, Mexican Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, and Polish. Meanwhile, an Android and iOS version of Microsoft’s Siri rival is also said to be coming soon.
