CAVOK not CAVOK at all, why?

Featured Replies

ASX ver 1160 installed, FSX.Starting on an airport I know has cavok conditions.Clear all weather.Start ASX, it connects, and after a little while, the sky is crowded with cumulus, total overcast.Strange, I know it is CAVOK, I think to myself. Then, in "report" page, the airport I am at is indeed reported NO CLOUDS.So how on earth is it possible for ASX to give me a total overcast when the report in ASX is telling me it is Sky Clear?I can of course give you a screenshot, but you have probably heard about it before.

Thank you for answering.Well here is the screenshots, in the REPORT window, it it easy to see that the metar for Heathrow is indeed correct: CAVOK.But then there is the problem, "decoded textual weahter for EGLL: ..."clouds scattered at 1900 feet...".http://www.torestabell.no/767/weather1.JPGhttp://www.torestabell.no/767/weather2.JPGHope you can give me a good answer.Regards,Tore Stabell

Hi,Thanks for the shots, but next time please reduce their size a bit!I went to EGLL two hours later and got this:EGLL 192120Z 28008KT 10SM CAVOK 10/06 Q1019and the graphical conditions were right on. Reduce all the cloud sliders to zero and see what happens. That is the way mine are set up right now.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
