Has anyone else's weather widget been frequently rendered useless by weather alerts that aren't important? This "Air Quality Alert" is an ozone action day that simply asks people to carpool or ride a bike to work. Since updating to iOS 16 we've had these alerts in Texas practically every day. meaning the temperature has only been displayed on my home screen for like 3 days total lol.

I know that I can add a widget under the clock that will always show the temperature but I much prefer how clean the lock screen looks with the weather up top. I also know it's super easy to check the weather on my phone, so that's not the issue. I was just genuinely curious if anyone else keeps getting these types of alerts extremely frequently.

I’ve stumbled upon this post while searching another weather topic… but yes, these alerts are extremely annoying. If they REALLY have to be there, I would at least expect an option to acknowledge & make it go away.
