Since upgrading to WatchOS 10, the weather complications do not work.
I have tried several different weather apps but none work.

Apple Watch Series 7
Quick update (of my situation):
Summary - this may be to do with 12 vs. 24 hour clock settings.
Detail: All my Apple devices are set to Australia for the region, which defaults to 12hr clock. I change all devices to display/use 24hr clock. Watch was the same, and assumed it was set that way. Noticed just now that Weather widget in dock (scroll crown up function) was showing 12hr clock. Can't change this on the watch, but in the Watch app on the iPhone I went into 'Clock' settings and noticed 24hr clock was toggled off (no idea why). Turned 24hr back on and all the weather complications updated immediately and the widgets showed 24hr clock again. So that seems to have fixed it for me.
I “made” my weather return to watch by changing location to ‘always’ Previously was when using
I had this issue suddenly today, April 29. Tried several different things, finally tried switching faces (I used Mickey) via the phone app. When I switched back to modular, the weather loaded.
I solved the same way, turn wifi off on you phone the watch then loads weather properly. Apple watch os 10.4. Although this problem has been around for many versions of the watch os
Version 10.0.2 seems to fix it.
just updated
My problem with empty weather was fixed by switching to 24h clock.
but then I got 10.0.2 update and now weather shows me the weather in California instead of nyc
Solution: Update to iOS 17.0.3 and everything would be fixed
I’ve always used 12hr, but turning 24hr time in the clock app on and off fixed it for me. Thanks for posting this.
When I turn on my phone VPN at home on WiFi the weather updates! Turn off the VPN and it stops.
mine stopped working yesterday. Turned location services off and then back on it seems to be working now.
Worked when turned off WiFi. Thank you.
Yikes! Again? This was a problem with v10.0 and took months to resolve. Apple’s method was to clear privacy settings on iPhone and restart everything.
kinda sad that Apple simply cannot get this figured out.
Same here. I had an issue with the iPhone 15 pro max and wifi 6e in October of 2023. The initial iOS software disconnected from the network on iOS 17.0.1 until iOS 17.2. That has been fixed, but now I have a watch that refuses to load data on secure wifi networks. I thought maybe it was Wi-Fi 6e again, but it happens on any network that requires a password, whether the watch remembers or leashes Wi-Fi. If I join a public network am not on a protected wifi network, or am on cellular only, I have zero problems. I first noticed it with the many weather complications, then I decided to attempt to update an app in the watch app store exclusively on the watch, and it wouldn't load.
Strangely, I get texts, but all other data, including watch OS and third-party apps, do not work. I'm wondering if anyone else has tried to load data when this is happening outside of the weather app? I wasn't even able to do support diagnostics over the phone, the watch just said 'connecting' and refused to connect even though it is paired and I can see things like how much storage I am using currently (that doesn't require data, but Bluetooth sharing with the phone).
It seems to be a glitch in how data is processed when on protected, wifi networks. Currently on the most stable release of all Apple devices. Attempting to escalate to engineering because I've all but ruled out hardware at this time and a new watch will not resolve the issue.
Here’s another trick - make sure your iPhone is on a cellular network and not WiFi. For some reason the weather complications don’t load when the companion phone is on WiFi. Seems like a bug.
Same issue on my 15ProMax! Home WiFi on and weather does not update on AWU1. Home WiFi off, loads immediately! On latest watch OS!
