Abstract
Some embodiments provide a reminder application for creating and displaying weather-based reminders. The reminder application provides a set of tools to create a reminder and associate the reminder with a weather condition for a location. To present a weather-based reminder, the reminder application of some embodiments identifies a reminder associated with a weather condition for a location. The application then retrieves weather data for that location. After retrieving the weather data, the application then compares the weather data with the weather condition. When the weather data satisfies the weather condition, the application presents the reminder.
