I have been trying add weather updates directly on my lock screen on Android. I heard there’s some widget thing you can use but I’m not sure how to set it up or even where to find it. Is it something I need to download or is it already there on my phone?

Good lock, and there are several YouTube videos on how to customize your lockscreen on YouTube. Try Hayls World, she is good. Knows Samsung devices very well. https://youtu.be/ECOvFJMIsNk?feature=shared

Long press your lock screen (either from the lock screen itself, or through the lock screen setting). Under the clock will be an area to add a widget. Tap that area and you will get a list of apps with widgets you can add, weather being one of them. Select the weather widget you prefer and save (tap "done").

That works too, but you have to tap the clock to view it. I was under the impression that @sadik2511 wanted to have it viewable all the time.  Doing it the way I suggested, would keep it always visible when the lock screen is viewed, as well as visible on the AOD (if they have one).

Samsung added new widgits to the lockscreen in 6.1. You can choose between 6 weather widgits. You long press the empty spot on your lockscreen. You can then add widgits under the clock.

You can also add your weather widgits to the lockscreen from Goodlock's Lockstar module. These are the widgits You see on the homescreen and much bigger. You can adjust their size.
