Why is the city of Port Townsend, WA not included in the Weather app’s database?

Your equipment line shows only "Windows, Windows 6." What Apple device is involved and what operating system version is it running? That will help up better help you.

Port Townsend does not show on my iPhone or iPad, both running latest OS versions. I also tried entering the name and then the FAA code for its airport, Jefferson County International and those do not show up. Not sure why Idris' devcie shows it and your and mine do not.

However, the National Weather Service uses the weather station at Port Hadlock WA, only two miles away, to report Port Townsend weather. Enter "Port Hadlock WA" instead.

…Or, the revenge of unintended consequences…

Edit the weather widget, click on my location, and enter the zip code for Port Townsend (98368). A list of cities will appear with Port Townsend being obvious. Select it and click done.

Port Townsend, Washington shows up on mine as well using iOS 16.6. Currently 61 with a high of 64 and low of 55. The other odd thing is searching for "Port" in the Weather app shows it between "Port Angeles" and "Port of Tacoma", but it does not show when searching for "Port T".

That's very weird.

HI Jim,

I tried several permutations of the name, including "City of Port Townsend" and others after seeing a partial entry was not going to work.

My mentor in many things would have called this "the perversity of inanimate objects."

It shows up fine for me.

Weird indeed! Must be this week's thunderstorms in the PNW!

Just checked from my phone again (iOS 16.6) a minute ago as I'm in a different location today. Same result.

I think I typed the whole name. I'm often too impatient to way for auto-complete.

I tend to go with "Technology is great until it isn't" but I think yours might be better.
