Hi

Cortana got over her snit and started talking again but you don't want to trust her to far.

I asked "Cortana will I need an umbrella tomorrow?"

She replied "No you shouldn't need one."

I looked at the weather forecast displayed in her window, and it said...

Tomorrow, 39 degrees, Cloudy, chance of precipitation 100%.

I think she's still mad at me. LOL

Mike

I've noticed that Cortana shows a different temperature from what the weather app does.

Don't use the app to be honest. I messed about with it but I find it easier to use a search engine.

Yeah, the only modern app I really use is the mail app.

I am currently blocking all telemetry data going to Microsoft and this includes Cortana. I cannot be bothered with it. Admittedly, I do use Google Voice quite often on my phone for quick questions, like navigate to such and such a place... when does xyz store close... I use The Weather Channel app on my phone.. that is it.
