Tried rebooting, location services on, etc.

When I launch weather app it says today is Saturday and raining (for the record it is Sunday and sunny). The calendar app shows the correct day and time. I think this is a glitch in the app. Location is turned on but I dont see the little icon up at the top when I launch app
 
The Yahoo weather server was/is down. This happened yesterday too for an hour or so where it said it was Friday. If you open the Yahoo Weather app (which gets its data from the same place) it will sometimes say it can't connect.
 
Having the same problem restarted phone and doesn't change from Saturday. Funny enough my other weather for example Europe and Florida say Sunday. Lol.
 
Same problem here. Weather app says it's currently 45 degrees and Saturday when in fact it's 72 degrees and Sunday. Had the same problem Friday when weather app reported no chance of rain for the day and 10 minutes later it was pouring.

Oddly, it shows up accurate in notification center but Siri also reports inaccurate results.
 
Lol I was gonna post yesterday that the weather app is far improved. I'll stick with Yahoo Weather. Best weather app there is.
 
Yahoo weather app has been off all weekend too. Obviously they share the same data. Thought I was going nuts when temps on both apps said in the mid 60s but it was clearly in the 80s. Hopefully Marisa will fix this tomorrow.
 
Finally figure out a solution. Under Settings > General > Reset

I reset location and privacy to factory settings and that seemed to work. Shortly after a pop up asked if Weather could use my location, I pressed "OK" and it has started to work again.
 
Maybe related, but Yahoo seems to be providing a lot of bad data for this app - for the past couple of weeks, where I live has been showing that sunrise is at 1:47am (or thereabouts) and sunset at 1:55pm. This is also shown on Yahoo's own iOS weather app and the Yahoo weather web site. It's annoying, nobody from Yahoo returns any feedback messages or Tweets, so I've had to resort to another weather app.

For what it's worth, nearby cities seem to be unaffected, but I shouldn't have to disregard location services for the built-in weather app functionality.
