The Weather Radio is an informational accessory that displays the current weather and wind speed on the Surface, even if the player is in the Underground, Cavern, or Underworld layers. This accessory can be obtained from the Angler NPC as a 3.33*1/30 (3.33%) [1] / 2.5*1/40 (2.5%) chance reward for completing Fishing quests.
On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, the Angler will not give you a Weather Radio as a reward if you already have one in your inventory or in any of your Portable Storages. However, if you have a Fisherman's Pocket Guide, Weather Radio, and Sextant (or at least one of the accessories crafted from them: the Fish Finder, PDA, or Cell Phone) in your inventories, he will be able to give you duplicate Weather Radios.[1]

Notes[]
- Unlike most accessories, informational accessories such as the Weather Radio do not need to be equipped in an accessory slot. The Weather Radio may be carried in the player's inventory without loss of functionality, unless equipped to a social slot. Additionally, the info it provides will be shared with nearby players of the same team in multiplayer. Keep in mind modifiers will no longer apply to the player when not equipped.
- If an event is happening, the Weather Radio will still display the weather.
- The Weather Radio will not display the Slime Rain event.
