Watch 5 - OS 9 - modular weather blank

Hi, since I updated my watch to latest OS 9 I am having issues with my watch face weather display. I use a modular watch face and in the middle I have the weather forecast, I think it’s called current conditions. Currently it is stuck on loading weather data and doesn’t populate the screen. The middle area is blanks. If I click it shows me the details but it doesn’t update the screen. On another note, it initially came up and said location is not enabled and I did that as I didn’t want it storing my location. I just set a city in the app. Anyway, I turned location tracking on but it didn’t help.

thanks

Solved. Tried rebooting my series 5 watch after os 9.0.2 update and weather returned to normal display.

I’m finding the same. Weather will show me current conditions, but anything connected to the hourly forecast doesn’t work. Or it will work briefly before it goes blank again. It used to be a lot quicker at updating the weather information but now it seems sluggish, so I think it’s a bug.

I’ve hard reset, factory reset and restore, changed location settings, and I’m still having the same problem, so I believe it may mean we need to wait for the next update given every major iOS and watchOS update does have a few bugs that get worked out in later versions.
