I'm currently getting Google Now notifications on my Android phone, my OSX laptop, and my Windows 8.1. Sometimes these notifications are great, but most of the time it just shows me the weather. The weather notifications almost always come at inopportune times (the last two were right after I got to work, and at 3 AM), and are never helpful.
How can I disable the weather notifications without disabling the other notifications?

Go into the Google Now app and tap the three dots in the top-right corner of one of the weather cards. You'll get a pop-up that reads "Interested in weather updates for your location?" Tap "NO" and that should be it.
If that doesn't do it, go into the Google Calendar app, open the menu, and select "Calendars to Display." If the local weather is included in that list, uncheck the box next to it.
On Android I finally figured out how to only disable the weather notification, without removing the weather card or disabling notifications in general.
- Open Google Now
- Open Menu (swipe from left or press
≡) / OpenSettings - Open
Now Cardsand scroll down toGet Notifications forsections - Uncheck
WeatherorSportor whatever you don't want to get notified about
You will still see the card in Google Now, but the notification is gone. Exactly what I wanted to achieve.
