Weather Widget keeps defaulting to Cupertino. Solution?

Is there any way to stop my iPad (OS 14.4.2) from constantly resetting the weather widget to Cupertino? It does it every few days. I've seen some suggestions that I use 'My Location' instead of typing in my town. The problem with that is that even though my iPad is correctly detecting my spot on the planet, it provides the weather for the next town over from where I live, and despite being only a few miles away, the weather (including outside air temperature) can be radically different there.


I really enjoy having a fast way to check outside temperature and weather, but as it stands, the weather widget is completely useless to me. Invariably, I get the weather somewhere else (usually Cupertino). Is there any way to get this to stop altering my setting?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 14

I have never had any issues with the Weather widget changing its location once I have set it.

When you edit the widget, under the 1st location setting, have you just tried typing in your mail area code instead?
