Incorrect weather data for my position

Greetings, folks!

I wonder if anyone has noticed something similar, because when I have the smartphone paired, the Edge 1030 informs the weather forecast of another location.

Note: The GPS on my android is up and running perfectly. And this was also the case with 820 and 810. In the image below the weather forecast shown in 1030 is for the city of João Pessoa, Brazil. But I'm in Timbaúba, far more than 100km. Thanks if you can help resolve this. ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1478131.jpg

* GPS is ON

were you recording an activity ? Usually the Edge locks on satellites only once you start recording. Just a thought.

I had not warned that. I'll try recording an activity. Thanks for the tip.

The following conditions need to be met for weather to work:
1) Smartphone App Garmin Connect is running
2) Smartphone App Garmin Connect has access to cellular network data
3) Smartphone App Garmin Connect has access to phone's location
4) Smartphone has bluetooth enabled
5) Garmin Edge is paired with smartphone

Otherwise it will not work, or will only use data from some point in the past when all the conditions were last met

... And this was also the case with 820 and 810.

I wonder: 820 and 810 also showed the 100 km away station?
If so - maybe there is no station nearer...?

BTW: GPS fix will be established after switching on the device - not necessary to start an activity.

Hello friends. Thank you immensely for your help but the Edge 1030 / Smatphone continue to present the weather forecast of another city. I'll try out an IQ store widget to see if this is fixed. Thank you

Dear, unfortunately I did not resolve. To get around the situation, I disabled this weather forecast widget and installed a custom data field from the IQ Store. The Forecast data field. So far it has worked wellDear, unfortunately I did not resolve. To get around the situation, I disabled this weather forecast widget and installed a custom data field from the IQ Store.
