I think some folks expect a weather application to report exact details for their explicit location and the weather data source might be miles (and different weather) away. Got tired of the Apple weather app, and chose another solution.
In the U.S., I visited weather.gov and entered my zip code. International users might find accuweather.com useful by entering their city name. That produced a page with weather reported by the local airport 5 miles distant. Then, in Safari 17, I selected File menu : Add to Dock… and I am one click from having what I consider accurate weather appear in Safari.

Not sure why Apple weather is so poor. It seems they often do not follow normal weather protocols such daily high temperature or low temperature. Often I get a low as of midnight and high as of noon which is not typical forecast norms. Overnight low should be through sunrise and daily high for entire day until sunset or really next sunrise.
Years back the Apple weather app was sort of close to what was happening. Increasingly it is a joke. As we listen to the rain pour down, snow pile up or sunshine - it is oblivious. I am sorry this app is supported. We usually search for other weather sources - but this should be an embarrassment for an great company.
Just to add, with the weather.gov or accuweather content, when you click on the Dock icon and it opens in Safari, you may need to press ⌘R to refresh the browser page with current data.
About as accurate as any of the weather apps.....
I do. It's totally inaccurate.
