Has anyone figured out how to get the Google current weather to show up as a notification on the Lollipop lockscreen? I would like to see it there on top all the time.

In google now options activate weather for your location. Then on lock screen pull down as if expanding notifications and it should pop up.
Good luck.
In Google Now, "Interested in weather updates for your location?" is set to Yes. On the lockscreen, there is nothing to pull down. The clock and date are in the center of the lockscreen and when I swip down, they just pulsate once.

Sorry bare with me. I managed to get it there but once swiped away it disappeared. Think it must have just been a notification thing. Sorry. I use beautiful widgets from play store for mine. I know its not what your after but its an alternative.
I just got it once here also. I tapped on it and it opened Google Now. Now it is gone from the lockscreen again. I guess once it is there...you can't tap it. I used Beautiful Widgets before and also DashClock but the weather was different with those since they don't use the same provider as Google Now. It was a notification that I had since Lollipop doesn't support lockscreen widgets that I know of.
How are you keeping the Beautiful Widgets on your lockscreen? Is it a notification?
Google now weather
I have also experienced the disappearing Google Now 'current weather' notification in lockscreen on both my nexus 5 devices. It showed up on the lockscreen one time after pulling down on the time but after unlocking my screen and relocking the device i have never been able to replicate the weather notification
The notification has come back on mine. If you swipe it away or reboot your phone, it seems to come back sometime within the next hour or so.
I use 1weather it's good for me

it's happened quite a few times now with various weather/clock widgets (Simi Clock, Beweather, Beautiful Widgets Clock Weather) that they show a different time than what Android shows in the status bar.
Just now, the BeWeather weather clock widget has gotten stuck at 18.38. I can fix this with a reboot but it's annoying and I don't want to have to keep rebooting.
Any ideas?
hey there !
it sounds like you've either supercharced your phone or check the option of "lock homescreen in memroy".
the first one is a script that you can run and makes you save the home screen as-is.
either way there's an option to disable it to stop the "supercharge" nor uncheck the option on rom settings.
Once every 2-3 days, I 'll get the weather lockscreen, instead of the one I have chosen. It's not annoying, but have you guys noticed anything like that?
go to the weather app-> settings-> untick the last option

Yes I do. For me it's a little bit odd.
It's not persistent though since once I unlocks it and put the phone into standby and wakes it up again it's back to the screen I have choosen. But once in a while the weather lockscreen pops back up again.
Oh.... so it's some kind of notification for todays weather? And here I thought it was some kind of bug... heheheh
Now I just wish there was an easy way to put the weather widget on any kind of lockscreen... so far I haven't got to customize the lockscreens with widgets...
This is probably the most noob question ever, but, how can I make the weather appear on my lockscreen? I can only find widgets to add to the panel when you swipe to the left from the lockscreen. I don't want to have to swipe to the side, I just want to see it when I turn the screen on.
I use the pattern lockscreen, but see the attached picture for the type of weather display I'm trying to get.
Thanks.
Nevermind,
Realized there is a CM10 widget with all the goodies on it. I had installed Lockscreen Policy and turned widgets off, doh.
However, if anyone knows a way to disable the slide to the left and still only have the one CM10 widget screen, I'd appreciate that info!
Thanks.
That's the Chronus widget but it was recently renamed to cLock due to to legal reasons.. Im not sure what you mean by slide thing though.. Can you elaborate?

I use a pin number to unlock my phone. I also have the cLock weather widget on my homescreen. I've noticed that the weather widget only shows on my lockscreen every other time I lock the phone. So if I lock the phone for the first time, the weather widget will appear on my lockscreen. Then, if I unlock my phone and lock it again, the weather widget will disappear. This will repeat indefinitely (alternately showing and hiding the weather widget.)
The attached screenshots are from two consecutive unlock/locks, taken a few seconds apart. As you can see, one has the weather widget one does not.
Anyone else seeing this? Is this something to do with my settings or a bug?
EDIT: by the way, I'm on Cory's unofficial version, 6/10 build. The behavior has existed for many builds, dating back even to the official nightlies.

I could never even get cLock to get my weather location so I imagine it's a bug... I could be wrong of course.
I just used Dashclock instead.
dashclock is pretty nice

thanks for the recommendation.
So I have a daily recurring event set up to remind me to do something every day. In the morning when the notification pops up I always just dismiss it. What's weird is that on the ambient display, the event still shows until the event time has passed (8am). It shows even after I've dismissed the reminder. I have no idea why this is happening. Any thoughts?
I noticed this last night. I believe you can long press on the Date/Weather widget > preferences > uncheck the option(s). I just changed mine this morning so I can't confirm but I think that'll change it.
i'm not sure which widget you're referring to. i don't have any on my home screen.

It's the default date and weather widget on the default pixel launcher at the top of the home screen.

Correct, guessing you can access the setting somewhere else but that is the only place I am familiar with.
You can get to that sub menu from the main launcher settings too. And if you're using a 3rd party launcher, you'd have to temporarily change your launcher back to stock pixel launcher to get to those settings
