That's a toughie. Kweather has been rather buggy for quite some time. 
You would in fact probably get more help asking on the Kubuntu list - or 
better yet, a KDE list (http://www.kde.org/mailinglists/).

But it honestly sounds like a bug if you say the station ID is in the 
stations.dat file.  I'd file a bug report with KDE 
(http://bugs.kde.org/) and possibly one with Ubuntu as well (and 
cross-reference).
