           Summary: Search finds scant results when weather provider's
                    website is accurate
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: widget-weather
        AssignedTo: plasma-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: marcus@harrisonland.co.uk
                CC: shawn.starr@rogers.com


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

For example, searching, "Blackpool" in the plasmoid's configuration with, "BBC
Weather from UK MET Office" selected results in no matches, and searching for
my post-code results in a town as far away from Blackpool as possible while
still being in England ("Fowey, Cornwall"). However, a search from the UK MET
office website results in many results for different details:

Additionally, a search on the BBC Weather website results in a perfect match:
