I have found this to be true with both 32-bit OS and 64-bit OS, in both cases I get a notice that Ubuntu has had an internal error and nothing happens on the location addition.

I think the Weather Applet is borken and it affects the operating system adveersly.

I am using Ubuntu 12.04LTS on three computers and have the same problem with Weather Applet on all three.

There seems to be a field missing but still being used which is a result of reuse of old code or unintended consequence of a rewrite:

When trying to apply the location to the indicator-weather on Precise the following error occurs:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/indicator-weather", line 1883, in on_apply
    (location_code, location_details) = self.location.export_location_details()
  File "/usr/bin/indicator-weather", line 405, in export_location_details
    return (self.location_code, self.location_details)
AttributeError: Location instance has no attribute 'location_code'
