Fix missing or stale real-time data

Use these checks to restore current conditions when Real Time is empty or shows an older observation.

Confirm that the intended station is selected and visible in Weather Fusion.
Check that the station is online and still sending data to its provider.
Refresh Real Time: pull down on iPhone and iPad, or choose Data › Refresh Real Time on macOS.
Compare the latest observation time with the provider’s normal update interval.

Cards look faded

Check the station observation time. Once the latest observation is more than two hours old, Weather Fusion can show a delayed-data warning and fade dashboard cards; the Station Map card retains its normal emphasis. Refresh Real Time, then confirm that the provider is returning a newer observation.

Apple Weather context uses a separate update time. See How Weather Fusion gets data.

If provider access or station discovery also fails, follow Fix a provider connection.

For one absent card or value while the remaining station data updates normally, follow Fix a missing measurement.

The provider polling intervals are listed in View and refresh real-time data.
