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?

Fixed! The latest update 10.14.4 solved the problem (at least on my computer).
Try removing the Weather Widget from your Dashboard, then Add it back onto your Dashboard.

Just got a response: Apple is aware of the issue and will resolve it in the "near future". The representative wasn't able to tell me whether this means a week or a month, but at least they're doing something.
Viking: the standard apple widget you mention does (or did when I could get it) show the 6 day lows, but very very faintly in blue. I've installed the Wunderground weather widget and it works well. thanks all for your help.
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.

So, to me, the mystery remains: Did the widgets work on the demo units in the Apple Store?
FWIW, The Weather Widget stopped working on all versions of macOS going back to 10.6.8 a few days ago.
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.
I suggest another App...

Working again on 10.5.5!
I did that. Still doesn't work. I think it has something to do with OS 10.14.3.
I agree. I have also noticed that the "Weather Widget" is not working. They are stock Apple Weather Widgets, and deleting/adding back made no difference.
The standard Apple Dashboard widget (dating from 2005) works fine for me on macOS 10.13.6 (17G5019), and on macOS 10.14.3 (18D109) with one exception — it no longer shows 6 day lows below the 6 daytime temperatures.
The Today Weather extension also works properly:
I have the same exact problem. My Apple stock dashboard weather widget have quit working since a few days ago. Tried everything above users have suggested, it's not showing. Not even Cupertino weather. So it's a bug Apple needs to fix.
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.
I'm waiting too... for several days now. I also have other problems which have popped up regarding a certain screensaver, and another problem with Safari crashing after trying to visualize a file, and have experienced TWO kernel panics in the last week! Argh! Don't know if all of this is related...
Had a quick dive into the Eldon Square Apple store in Newcastle yesterday, and the front-door mook said the widget on their machines was fine, but she could book me a Genius Bar sesh to look at it.
Had a check on a demo MBP... yep - nerfed.
