Local forecast - how do you get it
When I ask about the weather what I am interested in is the local forecast.
How do I get this with a voice command?
And if I can't do with voice how do I avoid to scroll though a bunch of cities to do Enform where I am?

Voice command are a real weak spot with Lexus. Believe it or not, my '11 Genesis was much better regarding voice commands. Maybe someone has an answer to your question,

More voice commands, more safety. Having to put eyes on screen and start scrolling through options is not a good idea. Lexus needs to wake up and provide us with a firmware or software update.

This is one of the weakest UI designs in the entire Enform system, and it never lets me forget how bad it sucks. Ok, go to weather. You're shown a map of where you are. You get a Forecast button.
A rational person would associate the map with the forecast. Nope, instead you get a list of cities to choose from. It is just mind-numbingly stupid design, and I will make sure I mention it if the LAB ever has another questionnaire.

Enform still has place to improve. Best I have done is taking some time, reading Enform's manual and just learning the available commands. If you don't have the manual it's also on Lexus' site.

Just learn the available commands, you don't have to scroll down from the list.

All you have to do is press voice command and say Weather. I do it all the time. Try Weather or Traffic for traffic reports. With my iPod attached I can get it to play the playlist, artist and even song I want. Voice command works great for me when I'm driving alone but with passengers they need to shut up! LOL
The only thing I don't like is having to confirm everything all the time.

Back to the original question. How do you get the local forecast without scrolling through tons of cities to tell the system which should already know which is where you are???

It would be really nice if Lexus would add the weather channel app that would display your location data along with the radar map. Now I just look out the window or hand my iPad to my passenger and have them use the weather app. The included weather only gives me the weather 50 miles away or tells me that severe weather is around which I already know by looking out the window.
