Weather

AMD: require(["esri/widgets/Weather"], (Weather) => { /* code goes here */ });
ESM: import Weather from "@arcgis/core/widgets/Weather.js";
Class: esri/widgets/Weather
Inheritance: Weather Widget Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.23

The Weather widget provides an interface for easily selecting and configuring the weather effects in a SceneView. For this, the widget modifies the weather property of SceneView.environment. The different weather types are: sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, and foggy.

For information about gaining full control of widget styles, see the Styling topic.

Example
const widget = new Weather({ view: view });

// Adds the weather widget in the top right corner of the view
view.ui.add(widget, "top-right");

Examples
// Create the HTML div element programmatically at runtime and set to the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: document.createElement("div")
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {

const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: basemapGalleryDiv
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});

// HTML markup

// Hides the widget in the view
widget.visible = false;
