Yep. But only close to 700 English add-ons.

The old duplicate extensions for different languages should be merged to clean up the gallery a bit. this same extension is also present in russian language as a seperate extension and the russian language is also present in this extension

Will have to compare this with a "certain other weather speed dial"

I installed it time ago and I think is the best Speed Dial weather forecast extension at the moment.

Can someone explain why the addon cannot detect your general location via your IP address?

I never understood why this basic idea is never implemented in any weather widget.

Most laptops do not have GPS and Opera does not let you manually "force" a location setting. The one-time selection is not complicated in any way.
