Q: Built-in weather app says it's 82 degrees in every city - all the time
My wife and I both have an Apple Watch (mine is a sport edition, hers is a standard). Both of us are having problems with the built in weather app. Mine works for the current location - it correctly displays the current weather and updates as I move around, and as the day progresses.
My wife's watch does not even do that. All locations for her, and every other location other than my current location always show exactly the same forecast information. It never updates. Ever. It doesn't even try. And there's no "refresh" button anywhere. So every time she looks at a watch face with the weather on it, she sees 82 degrees. Go into glances, 82 degrees. Go to the app, switch cities... and both of us see 82 degrees.
Other weather apps work just fine. But this is a major part of the functionality that needs to work. Is anyone else having this problem?
I would post this under something other than "hardware" if the site would let me.
Apple Watch, iOS 8.3, Sport

The solution was to remove all the cities from the configuration of the app on the iPhone and add them back in again. That reset the connection to the app on the watch.
Worked on my wife's watch as well.
The reason her watch didn't bring up the local weather was that she had location services blocked for the weather app on her phone.
