hello,i am using fs9, activesky-wxre 1.92, fsuipc registered, etc.when weather is generated it remains that way for about 10 - 20 seconds (yes, i timed it many times) then switches to clear, then might come back to whatever the weather is for the station (compared to what i see from metar readings on line).i've allowed this anomally to persist for months but now it is to the point of getting annoying. i dont know if i am hitting rain showers or a rain that miraculously stops instantly, etc.how can i fix this? should i send you my fsuipc.ini & wxre.ini files?thank you, in advance,don

Hi,Make sure you are clearing weather via FSUIPC before starting wxRE. You might also want to disable cloud transitions. Let us know if that helps.. thanks!Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation SoftwareDeveloper of ActiveSkyhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004betateam.jpg
