How to get Weather Tab working in MS Outlook calendar (Version 16.103)

To get the Weather Tab working in your MS Outlook calendar (Version 16.103), you need to ensure that the option to allow Office to connect to online services is enabled. Here are the steps to fix the issue:

1. Open Outlook and click on the File tab.
2. Select Options.
3. In the Outlook Options dialog, choose Trust Center and then click on Trust Center Settings.
4. Go to Privacy Options and ensure that the following setting is enabled:
   • Let Office connect to online services from Microsoft to provide functionality that's relevant to your usage and preferences.
5. Click OK twice to save your changes.

If the checkbox for allowing Office to connect to the Internet is grayed out, it may be controlled by Group Policy settings, and you should consult with your administrator.

Additionally, make sure that the Show weather on the calendar option is selected in the Calendar tab of the Outlook Options dialog.

If these settings are correct and you still cannot access the Weather Tab, it may be necessary to check for any Group Policy restrictions that could be disabling online content in Outlook.

• Weather Bar and Weather settings missing in Outlook 2019, 2016, 2013, or Outlook for Microsoft 365

In my version of Outlook there is no "Options" under the File tab....

Thanks for sharing the details, David! Try to switch Outlook to “Coming Soon” Off / New UI Toggle.

In some builds of Outlook 365, the Weather panel fails when the UI toggle gets stuck between Classic and New Outlook modes.

Try toggling the UI mode:

• In Outlook, look at the upper-right corner.
• If you see “Try the new Outlook”, turn it Off.
• Restart Outlook.
• Open Calendar → View tab → See if Weather settings can now be opened.

If you are already in Classic Outlook, turn the toggle On, restart, then turn it Off again. This refreshes the personalization registry keys that store the Weather settings.

See if this helps. If you need further assistance just let me know.

Best regards,
