Comment 11 for bug 1539930

Manually editing the panels config file with my information does not effect the weather plugin. After logging out and logging back in, my local config information is removed from the lxpanel config file.

Is there something I need to do after changing the panels config file to enable the changes?

See Sergey's comment above and also pasted below:
For future possible hot fixes:
you can manually config applet at ~/.config/lxpanel/Lubuntu/panels/panel
section Plugin type=weather

with such config:

  Config {
    alias=kharkiv, ua
    city=Kharkiv
    state=Kharkiv Oblast
    country=Ukraine
    woeid=922137
    units=c
    interval=15
    enabled=1
  }
