My Weather content doesn't work
I would like it to work. I have tried removing the content and adding it back without success. I am using Edge for my Browser

Maybe we should all just pack up and move to Sunnyvale California and become liberals. That would solve all of Yahoo's problems.

I would really appreciate it if you can get the weather App fixed. I cant change, add or save ANY of the places I want or need to. I have family all over the US and I keep track of the weather in their area. Since I cant do anything with the weather app once again, none of what I used to do can be done now. I see that this thread is dated back to Nov of 2020. It is now Late January 2021. How long does it take? It seemed fine before, cant you just reset it all to back when the app worked well? Anything would be a help. Well anything that would fix the problems. All my preferences change every time I leave my home page and come back to it. So, the App still has a problem. It has NOT been fixed............

The weather content worked well for a few days but now, not so much! I have 4 places listed and the names are there but not the weather. If I click on a city name nothing happens.

Broken again and again and again. Someone needs to be replaced for incompetency.

Additional issues:
Why does the weather default to Sunnyvale, CA...??? It should be using my current location and my selected cities.
Why is the weather always displayed in detailed form...??? It used to show one-liners with the city name and the temperature. Now it is always in detailed form for each city. Please fix and test it, so it displays as desired, either with minimal information or with details, depending on what is selected.
I have noticed that it now has the same problems whether it is the mobile version or the desktop version. Needs to be fixed and tested for all uses.

This module is unnecessarily complicated to add and remove. Yahoo keep changing its function and look at random...often times, they don't work....Its like they don't do UAT and developed by amateur web developers.
As of a recent change the past week,
- Adding used to be to perform a "Change location" and it would save automatically. Now it doesn't do anything. Even the STAR checking doesn't do anything.
- Removing used to involve just unchecking the STAR from any existing location detail page. That is inoperable now.After playing with various ways, I found out how to add/remove easily.
This ONLY works on the default current location. The STAR DOES NOT WORK!
- In the upper right, click the LocationPin icon ("View your location")
- On the popup page, if you enter the new location here, it will ADD to the homepage module.
- To remove, go to this same popup page, and you will see your past additions with a (-) next to it. Click it to remove the location.
- Refresh the page and you will see it gone. -

It has become incredibly complicated to edit you locations - you are taken into some "settings abyss". It used to be very straightforward. I can't undo "current location" which is wrong. I am seriously considering changing my home page. It seems changes are being done for Change's sake - ALWAYS a bad strategy!

Sunnyvale, CA must be the largest city in the world if it is the hometown of everybody signed-in to Yahoo. If you want your local weather sign-out from Yahoo but forget your customized screen features.

Regarding the mobile version for cellphones, etc. Using Chrome for browser.
Please fix this ASAP, it's been broken for quite a while now. The temperatures disappear frequently. Results are erratic. Most of the time, the weather is displayed in expanded detail form and not the one-liners with the city and temp. When compressed, it immediately goes back to detailed view when the app is refreshed. It should stay as compressed unless specifically expanded.
Please fully test it and make it work correctly!

You supposedly "fixed" the weather page and I actually DID see my chosen city show up. It's hard to believe that less than 1/2 of 1 percent of people could give a s**t about the weather in Sunnyvale, CA. So WHY does it keep showing up as my home town? Please make the weather page right and quit trying to "fix" things until you figure out "how".

When I change the displayed city either by asking to detect or I manually enter, the display does not change. It shows a city 50 miles away or sometimes Sunnyvale ??

Nice to see it working again after the long hiatus. Hoping this fix is permanent.

The Weather Module was restored on My Yahoo today, December 2, 2020. Thanks for making this happen! Let's hope that it sticks!

ROFL- Yahoo weather on my android box was broken years ago when you took down the old site. The weather app cannot be removed and basically bricked my box by crippling the launcher because of all the errors weather generates.

Now this is weird. If you are not signed in, the weather module comes up, but only for the place it thinks you are at. Once you sign in, it goes back to not working at all. If you had just left things alone you wouldn't have this problem right now!

My rss news feeds do not work, my weather feed does not work, and my Scoreboard defaults to "Trending" rather than "My Teams." I am getting no news, no weather, and unwanted soccer scores galore. If you're not going to fix these issues, let me know and I'll abandon my MyYahoo page and switch to Protopage.
