Yes, it is caused by the long city name. When using a shorter city name, the
tabs are shown fine. I am using the NOAA weather provider. The location to
reproduce is "Detroit, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, MI (noaa)".

I can confirm that this happens in my case as well -- the plasmoid resizes to
the full width of the city name when placed as an independent plasmoid rather
than in the system-tray. I think the preferred behavior should be truncating
the location name with "..." rather than overextending. For an extreme example,
try the "Bloomington/Normal, Central Illinois Regional Airport at
Bloomington-Normal" NOAA station, the weather widget shouldn't take up half the
screen.
For testing purposes of different stations, you can use the following to get
the list of NOAA stations sorted by length:
wget https://w1.weather.gov/xml/current_obs/index.xml
xmllint --xpath '//station/station_name/text()' index.xml | awk '{ print
length, $0 }' | sort -rns | less
Bug is still reproducible in the most current releases.
