There is a particular kind of comfort in a weather channel that is simply on. If you grew up in the 1980s or 1990s, you know the feeling: the blue and orange screens, the smooth jazz, the forecast that rolled around every few minutes whether you were watching or not. You didn't look the weather up. It was already there, in the corner of the room, keeping you company.

I wanted that back. So we built it, and it lives at MultiplexWeather.com.

This article is the complete guide to turning almost any screen you own into a standalone weather channel. An old iPad in a drawer, a tired Android tablet that can't run new apps anymore, a Fire tablet, a laptop plugged into a TV, or a TV with a streaming stick. No app to install. No account. No subscription. Just a web browser and a place to set the screen down.

I'll walk you through each device step by step, including the small settings that make the difference between "a web page" and "a channel that stays on all day." By the end you should be able to set one up without needing to ask anyone a follow-up question.
