Apple Weather App Data Not Loading for Many Users
Apple is currently experiencing issues with its weather data provider, leaving many users unable to see live weather information and forecasts for regions in the Weather app.
The problem appears to be affecting many users around the globe, with weather apps on several Apple platforms affected, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS and macOS.
Apple is currently trying to resolve a problem with its weather service according to its system status page, though the problem summary only lists the next hour’s precipitation as unavailable for Alaska “due to a data provider outage.” “, when in fact multiple regions and forecast types are down.
Apple says the issue affecting “some users” started about five hours ago as of writing and is “ongoing,” though some iPhone users report experiencing intermittent issues with weather data since the iOS 16.4 update it was released a week ago. We’ll update this story when the issue is reported as resolved.
