Heat acclimation and wrong temperature in Garmin Connect.

There is a whole thread on this already. I'm not very happy with it either, it has never taken into account the actual temperature of any of my runs. I have a Tempe and can compare the actual temperature to the "weather data" that connect is pulling(from somewhere) and have never found it to be within even 5-10 degrees f.

The problem is that heat acclimation relies not on Tempe or the temperature of the watch but on meteo stations, so probably the temperature of GarminConnect. This means that "heat acclimation" for a lot of users (at least for me) is not working.

Device temperature at least for me is more often pretty off compared to real weather.

So using meteo stations is smart.

Ps. Living in Finland, and my hand is usually 37, weather often is not so warm, so heat that I'm generating is messing the devices temperatures :) 

But if users alread  reported that in many location the data of weather station that Garmin trust are inaccurate, why  they don't use a service like for example yahoo? Temperature in the yahoo website are far more accurate than temperature reported by local weather station.

Then the problem is the service/stations used. Solution is not use the device's temperature sensor.

Hard to say what they are using, but at least here they seem to work.

The strange thing is that the watch itself displays strange things: it says correctly that the maximum temperature in the day is 28°C and the minimum temperature is 17°C, and also the temperature hour after hour and day after day are correct. But the watch reports that the instant temperature (the first big number) is 12°C, so incorrect and well below the minimum temperature of the day.

I called Garmin support and we checked together that the phone had a good connection with the watch. We also could see that the phone was giving good data to the watch , because the weather forecast in the weather widget were correct both for the day that for the week. So the

The internal watch temperature is often not accurate, but the external Tempe sensor is very accurate. As others have noted, I have seen the watch report the correct current temperature on the weather widget on the watch and then seen it report a completely different, completely wrong, temperature on the Garmin Connect activity. I'm not sure where the weather data is being pulled from but it is not accurate at all for most of my activities.

I called Garmin support and we checked that the phone was giving good data to the watch for weather forecast of the day and of the week. Garmin support said that the wrong number that Garmin Connect is using is coming from the local weather station, but they say that it's not possible to change which local weather station to use. I would strongly suggest Garmin two things:

1- Please Garmin, check the data of the local weather station, and rely on that data only if you are sure that they are approximately correct.

2- Please Garmin, if you are  not 100% sure that the data of the local weather station are correct, it's a lot better to use the weather forecast that the watch is taking from the phone ( from some weather forecast website), because I can see that these data are usually near the real value of temperature.

In this exact moment the weather widget of my watch says that the current temperature is 18°C(64°F), but in reality is 31°C (88°F).

Minimum and maximum of the day that the watch gives are about correct (30°C -86°F max and 20°C - 68min), so please Garmin start use this temperature.

Garmin support asked to be patient and that Garmin will fix Garmin Connect, but it would be nice if Garmin-Blake could say that this issue is under investigation by the developers.

With bad data from the local weather stations, I can't now use the "heat acclimation " feature at all.
