Weather Forecast HUD
Weather Forecast HUD shows a small top-left readout of the current weather, its intensity trend and, in singleplayer, how long until the next change.
What it does
The overlay appears in the top-left corner of the screen. Its first line gives the current state as Clear, Rain or Thunder with a percentage, plus a trend marker that shows whether the intensity is rising, falling or holding steady. Vanilla Minecraft never reports how long rain or a storm will last, so the readout fills that gap for players who otherwise have to guess from the sky.
Its second line appears in singleplayer only and gives a countdown, such as rain ending in 1m 12s or a storm ending in 42s. Colors follow the weather: cyan for rain, yellow for thunder and warm gold for clear skies. The overlay is toggled with the B key. Installation requires Fabric API, and the mod is client-side only, so servers do not need it. Files exist for Fabric 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, released under the MIT License.
Key features
Current weather readout
The first line shows Clear, Rain or Thunder with an intensity percentage, so the state is visible at a glance.
Intensity trend marker
A marker shows whether rain or thunder is building up, fading out, or holding steady between checks.
Singleplayer countdown
In singleplayer, a second line counts down to the next change in rain, clear skies or a storm.
Color-coded weather
Cyan marks rain, yellow marks thunder and warm gold marks clear skies, matching the mood of each state.
Toggle with a key
The B key shows or hides the overlay, so it can be kept out of the way when not needed.

Weather Forecast HUD turns Minecraft's invisible weather timer into a one-glance badge. Vanilla never tells you whether it's about to rain, how long the storm will last, or how close clear skies are — you just stand in the rain and guess. This mod surfaces all of it. Colors match the mood: cyan for rain, yellow for…
