How do I get Siri to recognize my current location, for example when I'm looking for the weather. As it is now, Siri is pulling my location as New York and I live in Texas.

Check your location services settings and make sure Siri is enabled.

Go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services. Make sure LS is on and Siri has access to your location. If it's on, which I presume it is, then maybe try a restart or a restore.
 
I did as both of you suggested and nothing worked. It's still given me a different location. I think there's an error with Siri. It has my location accurate for everything except weather. When I ask it the weather, it has the same city but a different state. This only applies for weather though.

What if you just try going to the weather app manually, does it also pull the incorrect location? If so then you know is the app and not siri

FASCINATING. I'm in Brooklyn, NY, and the Siri weather response is CLEARLY pulling from New York, Texas, as confirmed by the weather app (which is working just fine, btw, based on location info).

Hilarious...?
 
Same issue

I'm in Brooklyn as well and experiencing the exact same issue.
Siri pulls up New York, Texas.
Let me know if you have any other suggestions.
Thanks!
