I can't find my location (Kashan, Iran) in Weather app although it is listed on foreca.mobi website. I can confirm that there are also other locations in my country which are not listed in Weather app but exist in the website.

I wish to know if it's possible to add locations by their ID (e.g. in my case 106300051) in a setting file of Weather app.

Edit (2.0.4.14): I didn't use Weather app for ages, but now on 2.0.4 I noticed that my location is available, however with no current conditions; and it's strange that it's impossible to set as the current location in this situation.

Confirmed. The area I live in is not listed but shows on the main site. Yet every town around where I live is available.

Over a year later, no change, but then I don't expect Jolla to sort this out any time soon or int he future, not with all the polishing still left to do with the OS in general.

I think to contact Foreca directly and ask them about adding/inserting your city/area into their system. I pondered over an email to Foreca, but honestly, I'm not too bothered, as I can set a destination 2 miles up the road, which is close enough, but......still no cigar!

@fmotl Could you tell us which location it is so we can test it?

@jiit - my location is Westgate-on-Sea, it can be spelt without or without the hyphens

Thanks, I can reproduce it on foreca.mobi site. The location is not listed on Foreca main page however for some reason.
