Just as for the iOS devices, the watch will support the two sets of animated weather symbols, but to reduce the load on battery, CPU and memory only the current weather icon will animate on the watch.

widget weather now has 12 different static weather icon sets and two of these are available as animations so there should be no problem finding one that matches your new Apple Watch:
