The Search.hmyweathertoday.com most likely to occur during the installation of free software due the fact that potentially unwanted applications like this are usually hidden in the installer. Thus, if you’ve installed some free programs using Quick(Standard) method, you may have let a hijacker get inside the PC system. Keep in mind that the Quick mode is unreliable because it do not warn about additional applications. Thus, optional software will be installed automatically unless you choose Advanced/Custom mode and reject its installation.

Now your computer should be free of the hijacker infection responsible for redirections to Search.hmyweathertoday.com. We suggest that you keep AdGuard (to help you block unwanted popup advertisements and unwanted malicious web sites) and Zemana Anti-Malware (to periodically scan your system for new malware, browser hijacker infections and ‘ad supported’ software). Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for MS Windows operating system.
