Stockholm location shows the temperature as expected

SUMMARY
The Weather Report widget no longer shows the temperature when I set the location to "Linköping, Sweden, SE (BBC Weather)". I can only the weather type icon (clouds, rain, snow, etc), and the tooltip only shows the wind. Attempting to change the Appearance settings in the  "Weather Report Settings" window does not help. I can only see the temperature if I change the location outright to something else, e.g. Stockholm.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot into Fedora Linux 43 and login
2. See the Weather Report widget in the Icons-Only Task Manager
3. Right click and go to "Configure Weather Report..."
4. Go to "Weather Station" and set location to "Linköping, Sweden, SE (BBC Weather)"
5. Go to Appearance and set "Show the temperature: Over the widget icon" and click "Apply"
6. The temperature is still not shown.
7. Repeat step 5 but set the appearance setting to "Beside the widget icon" and apply changes.
8. Still no change, only the weather icon is visible.
9. Repeat step 4 but change the location to "Stockholm, Sweden, SE (BBC Weather) and apply.
10. The temperature immediately shows up and works as expected.

OBSERVED RESULT
Temperature is not shown with "Linköping, Sweden, SE" set as the location.

EXPECTED RESULT
Temperature should be shown no matter the specified location.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 43
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.21.0
Qt Version: 6.10.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The temperature used to show fine months ago, but I have been unable to get it working ever since. It does not matter which monitor display I use to change the settings.

The issue appears to be fixed now for some unknown reason.
