Steps to reproduce:
1. Add to panel -> Weather Report
2. Right click on applet -> Details
3. The default location is set to DEFAULT_LOCATION.

It should coincide with the default timezone selected for the system.

This was asked for in https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/9015 as well.
Comment 3 Daniel Holbach 2006-04-04 09:12:28 UTC 
Bug https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/36392 suggests to do this: "When the weather applet is added to the panel, the preferences dialog automatically comes up with the Location tab selected."

What version of GNOME do you use and what locale?

Hi,

this bug is set to NEEDINFO for quite some time now. The question in comment #4 has been answered. I am thus reopening.

If I am not mistaken, this bug is obsolete by now, so feel free to close.

Still happens with 2.24
Comment 11 Andrew Case 2011-07-08 20:03:02 UTC 
I think I have the same problem with 2.28.  System configuration is set to New York, NY, but weather/clock applet defaults to Boston.
Comment 12 Piotr Drąg 2012-09-06 20:55:51 UTC 
The strings in question do not exist anymore, so closing this as OBSOLETE.
