Asking about the weather
|
|
The question is ... as simple as that! The textbooks I have seen always have �What �s the weather like (today)? �, but it possible to hear �How �s the weather? � - Is there any difference?
Can you suggest any interesting video about the weather?
Thanks and bye |

"How �s the weather?" is a little more informal, and invites a more subjective answer. It is somewhat saying "What is your opinion of the weather?", although it could be a totally objective question, too. Bruce |

I always thought that "What �s the weather like" is more used in British English and "How �s the weather" in American English. But maybe I �m completely wrong?

No, "What �s the weather like?" is common here, too. Bruce |
