Weather.com website only partially loads
I am having a problem with the Weather.com website only partially loading in Firefox V45.0.1. I have two similar Dell T7500 desktop PC's which only partially load the Weather.com site. The site background will display but none of the graphics. I also have a Dell M6600 notebook that loads Weather.com properly. All of them are running V45.0.1 on Windows 7 Pro.
I have tried all of the standard troubleshooting procedures including doing a reset, re-installing Firefox, checking the add-ons, disabling Adblock Plus, and safe mode. None of those have helped at all so I suspect this might be a video problem, but Weather.com seems to be the only site doing that is doing this.
Does anyone have any idea what to try next???

Several users have reported that weather.com does not load fully if you have completely disabled location services. You can check on that here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste geo and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the geo.enabled preference is bolded and "user set" to false, double-click it to restore the default value of true
(4) Switch over to weather.com and test, and prepare for getting annoying permission requests...
You can make permanent site-specific location permission changes using the Permissions panel of the Page Info dialog. You can call that up using any of these:
- right-click a blank area of the page and choose View Page Info > Permissions
- (menu bar) Tools menu > Page Info > Permissions
- click the padlock or globe icon to the left of the site address, then the ">" icon, then More Information > Permissions
Near the top, you'll find "Access Your Location" and you can uncheck the "Use default" box and select the permission you prefer.
Note: If you have Firefox set to clear history when you close Firefox, make sure not to clear "Site Preferences" or your permissions will be deleted.

Strange. Mine appears to load ok on www.Weather.com.
I have a 2010-Nov desktop system. 8-G Memory. WinPro7 SP1. FF 45.0.1.
