      They are off between 6 degrees F and 14 degrees F
      The Forecast model from ECMWF to GFS makes no difference
      nor any other model.
      The station nearest me labeled sycamore canyon is correct to my location but your app does not seem to be able to lock me on to this position.
      Please help and explain how if possible.

        Try HRRR model and even better Meteoblue in point forecast.
        The comparison with Sycomore canyon weather station shows better predicted temperature than GFS or ECMWF.

          Yes I checked HRRR forecast. But shows 77 degrees. Station madis is 70 degrees as is the temp at my location.
          I am unable to lock on to that station and have added it to my favorites. Is that all I am able to do?
          When I click home again it shows 77.

            Looking at this weather station, its location is on top of a mountain at 1500 meters. It's a type of place where weather models are not accurate.
            Do you live at the same altitude as this station, at same location?

                Sorry there are several weather app with Sycamore canyon name.

                For this one, it is more difficult to find an explanation why weather models prediction differs from reported temperature.
                But it’s a bit strange that the 6 models available in your area provide such higher temperatures.

                  Right so my only recourse is to remove and get a refund for an app that has no utility for me.
                  Was nice when it worked!
