Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution-plugins

Washington, DC is not available as a location when creating a weather calendar, either under District of Columbia, or either of its two nearby airports in Virginia (Regan National -- DCA, Dulles -- IAD). Furthermore, there are no choices for immediate suburbs (the closest choice is Pax River NAS, MD and Baltimore, MD). This seems like an oversight (and hopefully not a knock on the US capital city).

I have a similar issue with St Louis not being listed

Unable to reproduce the St Louis report for this bug: When creating a new weather calendar for STL, 'Saint Louis' shows up in the locations list, and the calendar displays STL weather properly.

STL is listed correctly in the locations.xml file,
<location type="ccf" code="STL" url="http://www.crh.noaa.gov/data/LSX/CCFLSX">Saint Louis</location>
and I tested the URL - it's correct.

Might users miss it because 'Saint' is spelled out?
