Apologies to bwoll. I saw the "x" finally. It was gray, and I guess I was expecting a popup when I moused over it. It does work. Thx.

bwoll: Doesn't work for me. I've tried it in Chrome, Firefox, and IE. Same results. What browser are you using?

You can add and delete weather locations in the Yahoo weather widget. Here's how: Click on any of the cities in your list. Yahoo will open a new tab (or window) with that location's weather highlighted. Below the current weather info is a list of all the cities in your list on a horizontal scroll bar. If you hover your mouse over the city, an 'x' will appear allowing you to delete the city from the list. To the right of the city list is a search box that asks you to "enter city or zip code" and press go. Doing so will add the new city to the TOP (first) of the list.
I still can't change the order of the cities, short of deleting them and re-adding in reverse order, but hopefully those of you who couldn't delete, now can.

Among other stuff that YaHell is doing, this is yet another issue. bad enough to have to deal with their growing pains in email, and now this?
Yahoo, you're getting worse & worse...

Very frustrating that this is still an issue.

This is an obvious error in the application. No ability to delete? Should have been obvious to the creators that you would need options to do this.

When is this problem going to be resolved, NO DELETE OF LOCATIONS.

I want to delete a city from my weather block, and there is no way to do so. One either has to delete the entire weather block, or retain all that are programmed in. Help!

How stupid is it that we can't edit/delete locations? This one's going in the trash bin.

I have exactly the same issues. I need to delete several and add one or two, and I can no longer delete, nor can I move them up or down. When I searched for answers all I found were complaints and completely outdated instructions from Yahoo. What gives?

Why do you ask for suggestions as you obviously don't pay any attention

It's May and I can't add any new locations, either. I've tried Firefox (version 20.0.1) and Internet Explorer.
I normally have My.Yahoo running in the background, but if I'm not going to be able to see the weather (so I can plan trips this summer), I'll have to make Weather.com my home page. I'd prefer to stay with My.Yahoo because that way I can see my calendar and amil.

I cannot edit my weather choices, and (get this) weather choices have edited themselves -- adding places I've never accessed.

If Yahoo cannot repair I am leaving and going elsewhere. I depend on this widget every day. There has to be other sites out there that can help me. Please fix this fast. I need to delete some locations that I no longer use.

I cannot remove unwanted locations in the weather widget. I have a blank money conversion table. Seems to me it would be better if Yahoo just disappeared altogether - problems solved.
