I would really appreciate it if you would do that!

After a reinstall mine is functional again:

sudo apt install --reinstall xfce4-weather-plugin

I also removed the applet from the panel and re-added after the re-install.

An updated version (v0.11.3) which fixes this issue is available in the Xubuntu QA Staging PPA.

Adding this PPA to your 24.04 Noble install would also update many of the Xfce packages, so if you don’t want to do that, you could download the .deb for xfce4-weather-plugin and install just that.

Tried it twice…still no good.

Went there and found it, but no idea how to download it…I couldn’t find an option to download.

Here is a direct link - https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+files/xfce4-weather-plugin_0.11.3-1~bpo24.04_amd64.deb

You’ll also need to do what @1fallen did:

with the link @burgess-m gave you, you can also use:

wget  https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+files/xfce4-weather-plugin_0.11.3-1~bpo24.04_amd64.deb

Install it with apt

sudo apt install '/home/me/Downloads/xfce4-weather-plugin_0.11.3-1~bpo24.04_amd64.deb'

Make sure your terminal is in the directory as the .Deb

apt policy xfce4-weather-plugin
xfce4-weather-plugin:
  Installed: 0.11.3-1
  Candidate: 0.11.3-1
  Version table:
 *** 0.11.3-1 500
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu plucky/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Also be sure the applet is removed from your panel first.
