If you're talking to someone who's far enough away that "their" weather is likely to be different to whatever you're currently experiencing, you'd have more reason to ask what they think of their weather.īut if you're talking to someone who's actually with you, you probably wouldn't be asking what the current state of the weather is (you can see as well as them whether it's raining or not). Arguably some people might think the what version is more appropriate when the speaker is specifically interested in knowing what the weather actually is (or perhaps will be, later in the day).Ĭonversely, the how version might be more likely if what the speaker wants to know is how the addressee feels about the weather.Įxpanding on the above, I suspect the "frequency of occurrence" of the how version (relative to the what version) would be higher in the context of telephone calls. (WRBL) Beautiful forecast to end the week with a few passing morning clouds giving way to sunshine and warm temperatures for Friday afternoon. At times, it can be important to stay up to date and make sure you are prepared for whats to come.
