Weather app not working on watch

I just got the apple watch and all the apps seem to work. But the default weather app cannot retrieve any data. I just has the spinning dots. I looked on my phone and the app works and has follow access to my location. The other weather app I loaded works great but of course I can't add a third party app to the watch faces. Any suggestions?


Thanks,

I just had the same problem with my new watch and was able to fix it without all the resetting and unsyncing stuff. My fix was to go into the Apple weather app on my iPhone and delete then reload my default city, in this case Chicago. I noticed that in the iPhone weather app all three of the cities I had in there were "stuck" and not loading current data or had corrupted data (It thought Chicago, New York and Cupertino were all midnight and 82º) . I deleted them and when I re-added them they loaded with current data which also then synced back correctly to my watch. It was way easier than a full unsync/restart and it actually worked.
