Weather icons for Power BI

Weather icons explain context: demand rose because it was hot, deliveries slowed because it snowed. Energy, retail and agriculture reports use them to annotate days and regions.

Using weather & climate icons in Power BI

Where weather & climate icons earn their place in a report, and how to keep them readable.

Weather is context, not the headline. Put weather icons in a narrow column or under the date, at a smaller size than the KPI they explain.

Map icons to the measurement you actually have. If the data is rainfall in millimetres, use rain icons by band; don't show a sun because a day had zero rain but was overcast.

Power BI tip: With a weather table related to the date table, a measure returning the day's icon URI lets a matrix show weather per day beside sales without a separate visual.

Good uses

  • Daily weather in a sales or demand table
  • Temperature bands on energy pages
  • Weather-related delay reasons
  • Season or climate slicers

Three steps from this page to your report

  1. 01

    Pick and colour

    Choose one of the weather & climate icons below and set its colour to match your theme.

  2. 02

    Copy the format you need

    SVG or PNG for Image visuals and button icons; the DAX measure or data URI for tables, matrices and cards; theme icon JSON for conditional formatting.

  3. 03

    Bind it in Power BI

    For a measure, set Measure tools → Data category to Image URL. For theme icons, import the theme and choose the icon in Conditional formatting → Icons.

Want the icon next to a formatted value with a target colour? The free DAX SVG measure builder draws icon + value cards, and the conditional formatting icons recipe walks through custom icon sets end to end.

Questions about these icons

Can I use these weather & climate icons in commercial Power BI reports?

Yes. They come from open-source sets under the MIT or ISC licence (26 from Lucide, 26 from Tabler Icons, 2 from Heroicons, 26 from Fluent UI System Icons), which allow commercial use. Keep the licence notice when you redistribute the icon files themselves; the full texts are on the licence page. Licence texts · licence file (.txt)

Why does my DAX icon show as text?

The measure's Data category must be Image URL (Measure tools → Data category). Also check that every # in the SVG is written as %23, which the copied measure already does.
