YAEPT: Voiceless TH in whether, worthy (w as: UTF-8 Test: z h ōng guó ( ����), 한궄,)

My mother pronounces "worthy" as [wr\=Ti]. I wonder if she devoices
the TH in "whether" or "weather"...  Does anyone know if voiceless-TH
"worthy" is a dialect thing, or if it's just an idiosyncrasy of my
mom's idiolect?
