"Weather with You" is a 1992 song by rock group Crowded House. It was the third and most successful single released from the group's third studio album Woodface, reaching top fifty charts in six countries with a peak of #7 in the United Kingdom. The song was intended to be part of the Finn Brothers' unreleased 1990 debut, but after Capitol Records found the recordings, they were merged with a Crowded House session to become Woodface.

In 1996 Crowded House disbanded, releasing a greatest hits album Recurring Dream in June of that year. "Weather with You" was made the album's first track. Later in the year, the band reunited for one final performance at the Sydney Opera House and performed the song again, calling upon ex-member Tim Finn, who originally performed the song with the group, to join the group onstage. This live performance was not included on the VHS release of the concert, but it was shown on television broadcast and also appeared on the 10 year anniversary DVD entitled Farewell to the World.

In 2001 Neil and Tim Finn performed the song during the week-long concert series that was captured on the CD/DVD 7 Worlds Collide.

In 2002, reggae group Aswad covered the song for their album Cool Summer Reggae.

In 2003, the song was covered by vocalist/fiddle player Andrea Zonn for her album 'Love Goes On'.

In 2006, Jimmy Buffett covered "Weather with You" and used it as the namesake for his album Take the Weather with You.

In 2009 a re-recorded version featuring Tim, Neil, and Liam Finn appeared on the Tim Finn retrospective North, South, East, West...Anthology.

In 2015 the song was included in the soundtrack of the movie Everest (2015 film). More specifically the song was played in the scene during a party in base camp, the night before the crew started the climbing of the Mount Everest.
