1. Disable Google weather notifications
One of the effective ways to turn off weather alerts and notifications on your Android device is to change the notification settings in the Google app. Follow the steps below to do so.

You can choose to disable some or all of these weather notification alerts; you’re in charge here.
2. Deactivate various notifications from the assistant
In addition to sending regular updates, the Google Assistant sometimes sends weather alerts in the form of “miscellaneous notifications”. Disabling this type of notification on Google Assistant can help remove unwanted weather notifications from your Android device. Here’s how.
Step 1: Press and hold the Google icon on the home screen or the application drawer of your device.
2nd step: Press the info icon (i) in the context menu to display the details of the application.

3. Disable Google Assistant routines
Another proven way to turn off weather alerts on your Android device is to change your Google Assistant routine. By default, the “Hello” routine informs you of the weather when you say the keyword “Hello” to the Google Assistant. Sometimes, however, this routine will also send you weather alerts. Follow the steps below to customize the Google Assistant routine so you don’t get unwanted weather warnings.
Step 1: Open the Google app and tap the Plus icon in the lower right corner.

4. Turn off Google notifications
In the rare case that you still receive weather alerts on your Android device despite the troubleshooting solutions mentioned above, you may need to turn off notifications for the Google app.
Note: Disabling the notification in the Google app will therefore disable other types of notifications, for example, task reminders, bill payments, authorization requests, etc.
To turn off Google notifications, follow the steps outlined below.
Step 1: Long press the Google app icon on your device’s home page or in the app drawer.
2nd step: Tap the info icon (i) to open the info page for the Google app.

This method will disable weather alerts, but other vital notifications associated with the Google app will also be disabled. That’s why you should only turn off Google notifications as a last resort after you’ve exhausted all the troubleshooting solutions.
5. Disable alerts for third-party weather apps
To turn off weather alerts from a third-party weather app on your Android device, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Long press the weather app icon and tap the info icon.
