Instic2X solar tactical edition - weather update which seems a bit off

Hello there all,

Been using the instinct 2X tactical edition and noticed that the weather forecast is way off and plus daily temperature seems to be off too. The watch has synced with my phone via Bluetooth but I can't seem to get them all matched when it comes to weather. Appreciate the advice if one has. I am writing it from Doha, Qatar.

    The following article may perhaps help. Basically, Garmin uses mostly airport weather stations as the data source. If the one it uses automatically does provide accurate data, you can try setting the Weather Data Location to a fixed location of your choice, where you believe you can get more relevant forecast.

    Thanks a lot for the update. I actually work at the airport, but the current weather degrees fluctuated between 24C being the actual and then it went to 19C. I had to reboot the watch to make it correct. Also the forecast is way off than the actual for example on weather channel. I understand the fluctuations but it is off by at least 7 to 8C. I think I will try the fixed location Vs GPS to see if all aligns. It's just odd to see the variation.
