Google home does not recognize my current physical address but works on another physical address

Using my current address when I ask "Hey Google weather" Google home replies with information from Wikipedia. When I enter another physical address into Google home from a address close by, in actual fact it is an address from the nearby town, when then asking Google home what the weather is it replies correctly even stating that address. 

 

The question here is, why can I say "Hey Google weather" for other physical addresses but not my current home address? 

 

It is as if Google home does not understand my new address although when I ask for directions from effectively my home physical address then Google home will answer me correctly. So it seems GH does know where I live but not when it comes to weather report.

 

I have tried many things, the only thing I have not tried is to switch to another Gmail account address.

 

My solution that I just figured out:

Instead of "Hey Google weather" just say "Hey Google weather home"
