Apple Watch not showing weather

this is totally driving me crazy!! My apple watch from like a week isn’t updating frequently my current locations weather. I have good WiFi, phone Is right next to the watch. Even when I’m not changing places the weather can suddenly disappear! It shows lines.

what I did :

turned off WiFi and bluetooth then turned them on.

restarted phone and watch

disconnected Apple Watch from iPhone then connected again

factory reseted Apple Watch and set as new watch

toggled all location services options on and off

deleted the weather app and installed it again.

NOTHING worked.

My hardware : iPhone 7 Plus, AW 3

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 10.3.1

I just have the temperature showing on one of my watch faces and it stopped displaying the local temps a few weeks ago too. When I open the weather app it picks up the correct weather report. The local temperature does appear on my watch face if I swipe to a different face then back again. Changing the watch face fix is only temporary but it does work for awhile.

I tried deleting the watch face and creating a new one but it still stops displaying the temps eventually.

Hm.
Can you check these steps, please?

1. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and check that Location Services is enabled. If the setting is already turned on, try turning it off, pausing for a few moments and then re-enabling it.

2. Check that Apple Watch Faces is set to While Using. Try to toggle it to Never and then back again.

3. Make sure that Weather is set to Always. Toggling this setting also may help.

4. Check if the Background App Refresh is on for Weather.

Right so I did all that with the watch off I turned all the finctions on then restarted my phone turned them on and turned the watch on. Seems like it showed right now but I’d have to test it because it usually goes off after an hour. I’ll keep you updated

Hi.

That is odd.

Which weather app are you using? Are your iPhone and Apple Watch updated to the latest iOS and watchOS?

Absolutely , everything is updated Apple Watch is on 4.3.2 and iPhone is on 11.4.1

Im using the original weather app on the iPhone. I don’t have any apps installed on the watch. I also tried to toggle the place where it shows weather from current location to Warsaw and back to current location but that didn’t work. Once I press on the weather the watch opens the weather app and all weathers show but going back to the watch face it doesn’t show.

Edit: I don’t even know what could cause that issue it started about a week or 2 ago. I didn’t do anything to the watch then. No new apps music photos nothing

Could this Have something to do with the watches GPS? Does someone know exactly How Weather is downloaded on the watch? Is it via Bluetooth sent from the phone or the watches internal GPS and access to internet? I’m really out of ideas of what to do and every time I look at my watch I’m so annoyed without the weather. Right now I’m in a car and the location isn’t even correct.
