Add Weather Bar Outlook Calendar

It's easy to change the location of the three-day forecast in your Outlook calendar. Find the Outlook calendar's three-day forecast display. Click the arrow next to the city and type a zip code or the name of a place in the Add Location field. Outlook.com is a free personal email service from Microsoft that doesn't scan your email for the purpose of serving you ads. Automatically file emails and share photos easily. In Microsoft Outlook 2019, Outlook 2016, Outlook, 2013 or Outlook for Office 365, the Weather Bar does not appear above the calendar. Also, the Weather settings are not displayed in the Calendar section of Outlook Options. This behavior will occur if the option to allow Office to connect to online services is disabled. The Weather Bar is stuck on the original city location and it just says says: Requesting. Perhaps if your or someone can verify this behavior by closing outlook, disabling the GPO, run gpupdate, re-launch outlook and in outlook calendar, manually choose a DIFFERENT city via Add Location on the Weather bar (e.g.: Redmond, WA).
