Accuweather disabled the use current location functionality likely due to the wide variety of problems we found on device with geolocation. Now that bug 871072, we've confirmed geolocation is now working a whole lot better. Let's outreach to accuweather to re-enable this functionality.

"Use current location" is visible under the location search box.  After tapping it, I get a location permission prompt, and then within 10 seconds get another prompt that says "Current location could not be found.  Please enter a different location."

I'm also not getting a location with HERE Maps (but no error messages), so I don't know if this is my device failing or the app...
Well, comment 2 implies this is fixed then. I've confirmed it fixed in the preinstalled app as well.
