Bug Description

Weather applet is correctly configured but does not show any updates and of course, shows no data.

When I try to remove applet from menu:
Remove methods- right click over applet, weather, remove or using cairo dock configuration screen, suddenly cairo dock shuts off.

I'm unable to remove weather applet.

Neofetch output:
