Weather app layers not loading correctly

The Weather radar layer for precipitation regularly fails to load correctly on my iPhone 12 Pro (iOS 16.2). Information appears in the surrounding geographic areas but over my location (with distinct horizontal and vertical borders), the layer is blank. However, zooming in or out reveals the information. There appears to be a specific scale at which the layer is unable to load correctly. Anyone else have the same experience and able to point me to a solution?

iPhone 13 Pro. Same problem. Precipitation layer doesn’t load. Sometime it will show one square with precipitationsbut never over my location. Dark sky never had this problem. Full bars on 5G or 1 gig internet. No difference. The Apple weather app simply does not show animations on the precipitation layer. Please restore Dark Sky until this is fixed

App is still flaky in regard to radar map not rendering correctly. There are so many bugs and UI issues in this app Apple has repeated deleted other posts calling out the issues in their Weather app. The radar was literally reversing itself today while trying to manually scroll into the future. Please bring back the fully functioning DarkSky app instead of punishing your customers with this half-baked solution

Same here, we have a very large rain event approaching where here on the coast we take pretty seriously, and nothing while other apps are working perfectly. Apple weather is buggy. Often the weather is wrong, so much so that I rarely use it and when it does inject itself to my digital life, I have to go to another app to verify: weather mate. You’d think a company so concerned with Global warming/climate change would have a better weather app.

still happening with me i have an iphone 15 pro on ios 18.0 they have not improved this issue at all, can rely on their weather app anymore for forecasts nap, i use weatherbug and it's much more efficient i hope they fix it so i can go back to using my regular apps and this issue has been like this since i had my iphone 11 so when i got this new upgrade i thought it wouldn't be a problem anymore, but it is.
