Hey, we aren't here to judge priorities! Regardless of what's more important to you personally, you can easily sort all of your Today view widgets in whatever ordered you'd like. That way the information that's most important to you is readily available right at the top of Today view. Here's how!
You'll notice that the Today Summary and Tomorrow Summary sit static at the top and bottom, respectively. These are the only two widgets you can not remove or change the order of. Anything else is fair game.
