This was my experience as well, but a confounding factor is they bought Dark Sky 2020-March-31, which coincided with a drastic change in how I used them.

Before COVID / Apple's acquisition, I had a 10 minute bike ride from my place of work to where I lived. I could use the hyper-local predictions to stay out of the rain, and it almost never failed me.

Either way, because the install base sensors powered predictions, I suspect the acquisition is what killed its utility. I can't count on the accuracy any more.
