Facebook adds weather info to event pages and locations

Facebook today began adding weather forecasts to upcoming events and current weather conditions to place pages such as parks, cities and neighborhoods, a spokesperson tells us.

Events that have a designated location, and which will occur within 10 days, will now offer a general forecast and estimates for high and low temperatures. Users can click to visit Weather Underground for full conditions and other information. This will be available for event pages on the web and mobile.

Users will be able to see the weather forecast during the event creation process as well, which could help them better plan their event.
