Weather app Radar/Map Broken

Apple has had some issues with this from time to time.

It was more from the weather servers they have associated with the service rather than the Application itself.

Below is screen shot - not video capture to illustrate, though it is work in my location

May what to do a Status Check for current updates on all the Apple Services

I see Apple Mac Apps Store, Podcasts and a few other services are Down.

Apple - Support - System Status

I can testify than during the lead up to Xmas 2022 - there waste issue and it was the Servers used by Apple for weather.

On the 3 Apple computers I own and operation, 1 M2 MBA, 1 M1 MBA and 1 M1 Mac Mini the Weather Application is functioning as per design

2 of the 3 machines were upgraded from Big Sur to Monterey and now on Ventura 13.2.1

The M2 came with Ventura 13.0 was updated to 13.2 then to 13.2.1 and it too work as per design

Go figure

1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.

2 - Safe Mode will also eliminate Third Party Software, extensions and drivers from loading. It will only load the Minimum amount of Core Apple Processes to allow the the computer to function at a reduced Level of Performance 

3 - Does the issue present in this mode ?

4 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.

5 - If not - there could be something in the main User Account playing up. To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac. Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.

6 - If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.

7 - Download the Application Etrecheck directly from the Developer.

This is a Diagnostic Tool that makes no changes to the computer.

It makes a coherent and readable inventory of both the Hardware and Software used on the computer 

The application is free or paid from added features. 

The Report will Not Reveal Any Personal Information. 

Post back the Full Report - copy and paste - >>>> using the Additional Text Icon ( 3rd Icon to last ) <<<<

It is there and what the User decides to do in really up to the User

Or

1 - Get Support Choose a product and we’ll find you the best solution.Start now and open an Apple Support Ticket as they are Apple Employees to deal will these types of issues . 

2 - Product Feedback - Apple and make it known to Apple regarding this ongoing issue

Thank you for the feedback and the time to run in Safe Mode

Safe Mode is only 1 of the 7 step outline earlier

The results your machine has present even in a Guest Account would seem semi normal.

Safe Mode It will only load the Minimum amount of Core Apple Processes to allow the the computer to function at a reduced Level of Performance 

It will be interesting to see the results aft moving down to and testing in some of the more advance Trouble Shooting steps

Right now Monday Feb 27, 2023 @04:17 AM EST we are expecting a Snow storm coming up over Chicago and over The Great Lake into Southern Ontario

Otherwise the Weather Application and all available Data presented in same application is running as expected

You were so close.

Above where you clicked. The precipitation radar map where it shows locations like you’d see on a map. It will be an animated radar view of where precipitation is predicted to move to. So you can see which direction the weather is moving in from and going to.

Same issue here.

I noticed P. Phillips states no issue with his devices, however the screenshot is more of a zoomed out view. Zoom in more to a city view and you will see boxes where the animation titles should be.

this occurs on my iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPad Pro, M1 iMac, and M2 MacBook Pro. Deleting the app and reinstalling on all devices, reboot and reinstall same issue. This is an issue only with the precipitation radar zoomed in. Zoomed out will make the tiles load.

Mine looks identical to the original poster’s screenshot looks over iMac, iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro. Also my wife’s iPhone does the same thing. All up to date.

Also checked with a friend and his is doing this as well.

Your view is also zoomed out to where the tiles actually do load. Zoom in closer to the city level, the default view when it opens. As soon as you are zoomed out to where it shows states names it will start to populate the animation tiles.

In the Context of where this Question is appearing in Ventura for Apple Computers.

Some may not see value in attempting the Seven Steps previously mentioned but at same time none of the suggested steps will cause harm to either the Computer or the User.

It may or may not offer some insights on what is actually occurring on the affected computer as it relates to the Weather Application

EDITED

I totally agree.

With it having exact behavior on mobile devices as well as desktops makes it seem deeper than a user account issue.

Luckily it’s a universal app and hopefully the fix will propagate to all devices if and when Apple addresses it.

A wee update: the problem (for me, at least) seems to be with the 'next hour' forecast. When I switch it to 12 hour forecast, all is well (on all of my devices). Heck, I can even zoom in/out while the 12 hr forecast animation is running and it works fine. So perhaps it's an issue integrating Dark Sky's short term predictive info with Apple's Weather app? I'm assuming the 12 hr forecast comes from this or that national weather service (I'm in CAD) and/or some other more 'global' weather info services. I *think* the 1 hr feature is a Dark Sky algorithm-y thing (hope that's not too 'techie' a term). ;-) Side note: I say this b/c if you toggle back and forth between the two forecasts, the results are a bit different. The most annoying aspect is that the 1 hr forecast's lack of info is always at the location you're interested in. Maybe we should all check the weather for a location approx 75km away from the locations we want to see? ;-)
