How?

To check the weather, I tap on the weather app on my phone, which shows me the weather in Melbourne, and what the weather will be throughout the day. Underneath it also shows the weather forecast for the next week. If I swipe right or left, the city changes and therefore the weather of that city is also displayed.

To check the train times, I type into google, my train line timetable. I then select the correct date and whether I am traveling to or from the city. Then underneath is a list of all the stations that are on my train line, and next to the name of the stations, are all the different times the train stops at these stations and whether or not it is an express train.

Why?

I need to check the weather every morning, as I need to see what the temperature for that day will be as it affects what clothes I need to wear. I also like to just use the weather app on my phone as it is the easiest tool to use and the quickest. I also do need to check the train timetable, as I need to know what time I should get the train to the city, to ensure I am on time to all of my Uni lectures, screenings and workshops. And looking at the PTV website is also helpful as it tells me if there are any train delays.
