      When I open up the Windy app, and select the forecast for the "current location" that shows up in the app, Windy defaults to a forecast somewhere in an altogether different part of WA state- either near Yakima or Ellensburg locations (ie, not my location). Any ideas on how to fix this? I am using an iPhone 15, iOS 17.6.1. This happens 100% of the time when opening up the app. Thanks.

        @KevinPiasecki Hi, do you have GPS allowed to be used by Windy.com? It looks like the GPS location is not loaded so your device get localization from IP address, which is usually wrong.

        Is it possible that you use some kind of software on your device that could affect the behavior? A kind of VPN, or similar tool?
