Detect my location in yahoo weather does not work, it starts me as United States, Press detect my location and it takes me to Charlotte NC.
Just fix and stop procrastinating. It used to be able to find My true location!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now it can't find its *** with both hands.
Wake up, this should not be that difficult.

It seems Yahoo has no interest in correcting this problem with correct city location for the weather page. This has been ongoing since 2020. For some time we were able to list the correct city as a second choice, but that is now gone. MSN is becoming more desirable every day, at least the correct weather location displays in a wonderful format with complete information. Sorry Yahoo, you could just answer this major ongoing problem that everyone seems to have. Seems to be related to advertising choice and/or location. If it were that simple, you could surely simply communicate how we could fix.

Same problem for months: 'My Yahoo' customized page, Weather widget repeatedly shows some California or random US town's data at top tier. 3 others below that for where I really am (Idaho) plus 2 other states stay stable. I've repeatedly clicked Weather's 'view your locations' icon and typed in my correct Idaho zip code, and then the CA/US data is replaced by correct local data. However, on next page refresh the CA data is again shown. I have Precise Locations and Location Hx enabled in my Prefs but it's not helping. I've looked everywhere in account Preferences I can think of to set an enduring location but found nothing like that.

Similar problem. Shows my current location as a nearby city. I do a "detect my location" and it gets it right.
Move to a different feed and come back, it's wrong again -

Every time I go to my Yahoo home page it show a location that I don't want or live in. I change it to my correct location. Then when I go back to my home page it show the same wrong place again. It does show the locations that I want to know the weather. But not my location on top of listing. And this all started about 2 weeks ago. Home location need to be fixed to where it doesn't keep showing the wrong location. I live in Tempe, AZ and it keeps showing that I live in Bellmonte, AZ which I don't.
