Anyone else unable to read hourly forecasts in Weather?

Apple Beta Releases

All:
Ever since upgrading to the iOS 17 Beta, I have been unable to read the full hourly forecasts in Weather. Flicking through the first six or seven hours works fine, but then VO unexpectedly jumps focus to the toolbar at the bottom and selects the next city in my location list. I've tried several other techniques, such as single finger touch or scrolling, to try and get to the rest of the hourly forecast, but nothing seems to work. I have filed this as a bug with Apple, but they come back and say they cannot reproduce it. I know there are a variety of other weather apps, but I really like the stock app and am frustrated I cannot use it reliably. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but no change. This has been an issue for the past couple of betas. I'm just wondering if anyone else has or can reproduce this bug.
Thanks.
Jim

Exactly the same as you. I am pretty sure I have seen 2 others with the same problem over the last few weeks.

Thank you to all of you who have replied to this, glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this bug. Yes, I have also submitted screen recordings with my feedback to Apple.
Hope this gets resolved before the final release.

Yes been like that since about beta 3 I think. As nothing seemed to be happening re my feedback report I mailed apple accessibility. They came back saying it was being looked at and they were aware of my report and thats it.
