I have verified this issue using Firefox Nightly 127.0a1 (try build downloaded from treeherder), Build ID: 20240510095250 by setting the "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showWeather" and "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.system.showWeather" prefs to true and by having a VPN solution connected to US.
I can confirm the following:

• The weather widget is successfully displayed on the new tab, the "Weather" section is successfully displayed in the sidebar menu and on the "about:preferences#home" page.
• The options from the contextual menu of the weather widget are actionable and perform the expected actions (Switch to Celsius/Fahrenheit, Switch to Simple/Detailed view, Hide Weather on New Tab, Learn More).
