Nest Home Displays and Speakers not giving weather information

Started Tuesday, February 18th, 2025, all 5 of my Nest Home Speakers and Displays - along with my Pixel 7a cell phone and Pixel Tablet

When I ask ANYTHING about weather, I get "I don't understand."  This includes "What's the temperature?", "What's the humidity?", "When will it rain?", "When is sunrise?", "When is sunset?", "What's the real feel temperature?."  

ALL of these worked just fine up until 2/18/25.

I use these commands all the time both as individual questions and as part of my "good morning" and "good night" routines.

I have rebooted everything to no avail.

Anyone else having this problem?

Hi Zunkman,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I understand that when you ask for weather commands, it does not work. I am happy to assist you! I have a question just to confirm: do you use the next correct commands to ask for the commands? Please visit. Get weather and forecast information.

I will be waiting for your response.

 

Regards,

Manuel

The EXACT same commands have been part of my Good Morning automation for 2 years.  I did not change anything, but it's obvious that Google did.  

* Tell me about the weather.

* What time is sunrise today?

* What time is sunset today?

* When will it rain?

* What's the weather for the next 4 days.

Again, this script worked flawlessly up until the morning of February 17, 2025.  Whatever Google changed or tried to fix needs rolled back to February 16, 2025 or earlier.

Hi Zunkman,

 

Thank you for your reply. Please try the following troubleshooting step to verify if your Nest Home display can recognize your question.

Use the command "Repeat the question." Note: This command repeats the last question you asked.

Please let me know if your Google display repeats your last question.

 

Regards,

Manuel

"I really do want to answer.  Maybe I would do better if you asked the question in a different way."

 

It says that for EVERY question I ask - not just weather related.

Hi Zunkman,

 

Thank you for your reply. Please verify that the language settings are correct.

  • Open the Google Home app. Tap Settings, then Google Assistant.
  • and then manage all assistant settings.
  • Tap Languages and select the currently set language.

I look forward to your response.

I don't know why you're having me check all this...when 5 things stop working at the same time, it's definitely NOT the 5 things that have the problem.  I wish Google would just admit "We goofed."

Hi Zunkman,

 

Thank you for continuing to try the troubleshooting steps before reporting this as a bug. We need to try these steps to confirm the issue. Thank you for your effort and continued responsiveness. I recommend you send feedback following these steps:

  • Say “Hey Google”, then...
  • Say “Send feedback”
  • Record a message describing the issue, and include the words “Incorrect answer” or “Unable to answer” along with the question you asked.
  • Wait for the speaker or display to confirm that the feedback was submitted.

Note: The speaker or display may respond with “Thanks, all feedback helps.”

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

 

Regards,

Manuel

Done.  Let's hope something good happens now.
