Also affects Ubuntu 13.10. Process goes into sleeping state when it stalls whilst trying to get timezone information. Terminal output:

****** Requesting timezone identificacion

I don't remember seeing anything about timezones in the configuration file.

Well, it did progress further than timezone identification, but it happened sometime while I was eating lunch.

This cycle forever, and by this time the (icon missing) indicator appears. There is no weather data available. So, I killed the process and renamed the config file.

~/.config/my-weather-indicator$ mv my-weather-indicator.conf my-weather-indicator.conf.old

I relaunched it, and this time it opened the GUI. I changed the weather source to Yahoo, and it works.

So, to work around this:
0. Kill the process my-weather-indicator.
1. Rename (or delete) the config file ~/.config/my-weather-indicator/my-weather-indicator.conf.
2. Reopen it like normal, but make sure to select Yahoo! as the weather source under the Weather Services tab.
OR
0. Kill the process my-weather-indicator.
1. Open ~/.config/my-weather-indicator/my-weather-indicator.conf with your preferred editor.
2. Change the following line:
    "weather-service": "openweathermap", (or whatever the weather service you have selected is)
To:
    "weather-service": "yahoo",
3. Relaunch my-weather-indicator.

My initial suspicions are that the API for OpenWeatherMap has changed (or the data returned has), but I haven't looked at any of the code yet to confirm.

Quoting dave-wolfeworks from https://bugs.launchpad.net/my-weather-indicator/+bug/1368029 :

I encountered this problem when I first installed 14.04LTS last year and recently re-installed on a new machine, so I had to look it up again. Another report about Python encountering invalid characters in the my-weather-indicator code connected with my observations about the datetime-indicator not displaying when I tried to display weekday or month. The fix for that, and my-weather-indicator, is to fix a locale bug by adding "LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8" (or the appropriate equivalent) to /etc/default/locale and reboot. My-weather-indicator and datetime-indicator w/ weekday and month both start displaying, so there really isn't a bug in my-weather-indicator, but rather in locale setup.

This worked for me, but I didn't even need to reboot. I killed the service, added the line to the locale file, deleted my-weather-indicator.conf, restarted the program, and it works with OpenWeatherMap now.
