Shortcut for Apple Home with Get Current Weather not working

I created a shortcut that gets the current weather and then automates things in my Apple Home based on conditions. It works fine when I click on test this automation, but when the shortcut is triggered by a timed event it fails at Get Current Weather. I have the HomePod in my bedroom set as my preferred hub. When I ask it for the weather forecast it will give it to me.

HomePod mini, 18

Weather automation in Home App no longer working with 16.5 OS My weather automations were working prior to upgrading to 16.5 OS. The weather portions of the automations no longer work upon upgrading. The strange thing is that when you test the automation using the play button or "Test This Automation", it runs fine, including the weather portion, but when it is set to run at a specific time of day, the automation runs, but the weather portion of the automation does not function. Are others seeing this?

Homekit automations one hour wrong Since launch of iOS 16 I have issues with HomeKit automations not triggering as expected. Especially time based triggers seems to work unreliable, often not triggering at all. Also, when creating a new time based automation, the default trigger time is one hour wrong. We recently ended daylight saving time here in Sweden so maybe it is connected to that? See screenshot below. Other HomeKit functions such as turning on/off devices using phone or HomePod works as expected so it doesn’t seem to be related to communication problems to any of my HomeKit accessories. I’ve tried to change primary HomeKit hub by disconnecting my HomePods and appletv’s to have it switch to another device, but no luck. Any suggestions?

HomePod climate info not showing in all devices Hi. I’ve updated iPhone, iPad and mini HomePods to iOS 16.3. All devices connected to same Wi-Fi network. iPad home app is showing climate info; but iPhone home app is not. Any idea why? And how can I get all iOS devices to show climate info on home app? Thanks
