Apple Watch "Tap to Open"
At the bottom of my Apple Watch screen it says "Tap to Open". When I tap the screen, nothing happens. I do not have a notification showing. What's happening?

If you tap to open as it says, will the temperature reappear? If so, you should be set. If not, try adding the Weather app to your dock (instructions here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206992). If that does not work, try restarting your Apple Watch by pressing the Side Button and swiping the “power off” slider. Then press and hold the Side Button again.
My guess is the app is having trouble loading in the background. Adding the app to the dock should keep the app constantly updating and push that info to the complication for you. Hope this helps!

Actually, you last comment did help. It helped me realize that that part of my watch face had to do with apps and their status. So I opened the music app on my iPhone and played a song. The song title appear on my watch where the unresponsive "TAP TO OPEN" notice had been. When I then stopped the music, closed the music app on my iPhone, the outside weather notification came back as it had before the problem started. Thanks for the help.
Can you post a screenshot of what you’re seeing? You can take a screenshot of your Watch by pressing the Side Button and Digital Crown at the same time.
As I stated when I posed my question, when I tap on the face, nothing happens. As I also stated in my question, I have already tried rebooting my Apple Watch and it doesn't change the problem. I also check the Apple Watch dock and it already has the weather app. I opened the weather ap on my watch, and it works great. Rebooted my watch afterward. I tried to delete it and reinstall it, but it wouldn't delete. The problem persists. None of you comments have helped, but thanks for trying.
Here's the screen shot. I have rebooted my watch, but it does nothing. The outside air temperature usually appears where "TAP TO OPEN" does now.
