Listening: A Weather Forecast

Listen to short weather forecasts and answer questions about the weather and plans.

In a listening task, you will hear a short text two times. First, listen for the general idea — what is the weather like? Then, on the second listen, listen for specific details like temperatures, places, and times. Always read the questions before the audio starts so you know what information to look for.
