Apple weather saying I am in Solano before auto changing to current location

anyone have any idea why my phone would think I’m in Solano (Philippines) where I’ve never been for the first few seconds I open the app before it auto switches to my current location?

Hi Katstevens777,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today with the Weather app. It sounds like another city opens in the Weather app for a few seconds.


Is Settings > Privacy > Locations Services > Weather set to "While Using"? Do you live near Solano? It's possible that the data connection is routed through there.


Do you see Solano in the list of cities? If so, you can delete it: About the Weather app and icons on your iPhone and iPod touch.


Let me know more details.


Have a fantastic day!

I’m having the same issue as the other two posters. My location is showing up as in Solano in the weather app’s preview when I swipe all the way left. I’ve never even heard of Solano before this happened and my location settings are set to “always” for weather, so it’s not that. Clearly there’s a bug on Apple’s end and it’s not a user error.

I’m having the same problem. I’ve never been to Solano and keep my Weather app on “weather”. Solano instantly changes to my location when I open the weather app but remains Solano when I swipe right and access the weather widget.


I was able to get the weather widget to change to my location by rebooting my phone but this morning I’m back in Solano. Clearly a bug! 🐛 🐜 🕷
