The combobox allows to choose cities after user inputs a search string. Please, try inputting a part of your city name and click 'get cities'.

It seems, that button label is not clear - could you please suggest any better name?

You are correct - I guess that if it was indicated to input their actual location before clicking 'get cities' may help

Most users of previous gweather are used to having the list available and in gweather one couldn't always use their actual location, in many cases one needed to pick a close by city. (nearest reporting location

So as example previously I needed to use White Plains, NY, now I can just input actual town (Ossining, NY
