Update: I was able to figure it out. For anyone else who may run across 
this issue, and it could also happen where the lat/long doesn't update, I 
used weectl to set the parameters on the device. 
I did that and restarted the weewx service but the web page didn't reflect 
the changes. I manually ran a report and that fixed it.

This is for a Vantage Pro2 using the Weather Envoy box, more details.

Set the location:

weectl device --config=/etc/weewx/weewx.conf --set-latitude=<your lat>
weectl device --config=/etc/weewx/weewx.conf --set-longitude=<your long>
weectl device --config=/etc/weewx/weewx.conf --set-altitude=<your altitude 
in feet>

restarted weewx service:
systemctl restart weewx

Check if it's running ok:
systemctl status weewx

I also ran this:
weectl report run --config=/etc/weewx/weewx.conf
(this runs all enabled reports)
