Apple Weather for iOS has come under fire again for a record-breaking temperature prediction that the service maintained for a few hours that seemed unlikely. Here’s where the data comes from.
Apple’s Weather app on an iPhone
Many iPhone users depend on Apple’s Weather app on the iPhone to determine the weather for the day or week ahead. However, while it is highly used and reasonably accurate most of the time, it can sometimes offer questionable forecasts.
The most recent example is from Fresno, California. On Thursday, GVWire reports the Weather app’s predictions on Thursday said there would be highs of 121 degrees for July 6 at one point, far above the 115-degree record high set in 1905.
