No, but depending on when you installed your databases, you may
have been running InnoDB tables (MythTV changed the creation to
explicitly select MyISAM at one point, but depending on when you
installed, upgraded, rebuilt, whatever, you may have had InnoDB
tables; and I think the mythweather plugin depends on features
that require an engine more advanced than MyISAM).
