Set a Weather Station as the Default Location
-
There is a local weather station which shows more accurate data than the closest city weather data which is about 10 miles away and at a much lower elevation.
Any chance for a new feature which would allow us to set a weather station as the default location on startup?

You can do it yourself. Set this weather station as Favorite and then choose this Favorite as start-up location in Settings. -

@idefix37 That doesn't work on my end. I do set a weather station as a favorite and I see it in my favorite list, but I do not see it as an option in the start-up location.
I do see a message in the start-up location which says:
Add any location to your favorites to see it in the list.
I can confirm that this only works for locations saved as favorites - not weather stations saved as favorites.

That’s right, the weather station saved as favorite cannot be used as start-up location. So the solution is to add a POI as favorite just close to this weather station. It will be available as start-up location. -
@idefix37 When you say POI, do you mean a location such as a city? Because the nearest location I can save is the one that is 10 miles away at a much lower elevation. This is why I think it would great if we can save a weather station as a favorite. This was something I was able to do with Weather Underground.

Yes POI is not correct, I mean a location that you select with the picker nearby the weather station and that you name as you like.
