Question Weather Widget Townships =Annoying

[nds76]

Something that has been really bothering me is the default weather widget on Android. I have the S23+ and I have seen this on some earlier versions well. But The weather locations almost always seem to be "townships" rather than the actually city or town name. Is there anyway to change this? I know I can make it show my city but it won't automatically change when I travel to another city. I think they use The Weather Channel as the source. That said, can the source be changed? Showing me the township does nothing, especially when driving through an area I'm not familiar with.

Tap the weather widget then tap 3 hamburger bars to upper left and the gear icon upper right to make sure syncing is on. When you first tap the widget you can add city

I know you can add cities but I want it to stop showing townships wherever I go. I don't wanna have to add cities for wherever I go.

Have you tried disabling current location in the settings?

How would the app function if location is disabled? I want my location to change automatically wherever I happen to be, but I don't want to see "townships" listed for my location. Here is an example. Let's say I lived in Cincinnati, OH but the app displays Crosby Township. Wouldn't it make more sense to have the city proper displayed rather than the township?
