weather widgets not loading

My IMac weather widgets aren't loading the weather for two days. What to to? And do you know an alternative widget for weather?

iMac 21.5", macOS 10.13

Definitely not a macOS issue. Just in the past few days, the Weather widgets on both my iMac (Sierra) and MacBook (Mojave) have stopped working. First I noticed that they weren't updating, then when I removed and reinstalled them, I got a blank Cupertino "report."



Interestingly, if I click on the widget, it opens a tab in Firefox with my local weather report on Yahoo. So at least the connection with Yahoo Weather appears to still be working. Thanks to those of you who have opened issues with Apple.

I just had a phone conversation with an Apple support specialist who said, essentially, yeah, we know about it. It's probably a "server-side" problem (whatever that is) and "it'll be fixed when it's fixed." I suggested that the support guy put up a note here to let everyone know what his answer is, but he deferred. I suggested that the engineers dig a little deeper and fix it, and he deferred. He said he wished he could have been more help. I said I wish he had been more help too.


In other words, there's not a **** thing they're going to do about it.

My Weather widget isn't working either. Hasn't for like four or five days. Additionally, the Dictionary widget isn't working. I'll enter a very basic word, and it'll say it's not found. So apparently, the internet connectivity of these widgets has been broken. Any insight into how to fix it would be greatly appreciated. I've already tried removing then adding them back, as well as deleting preferences and restarting.
