Real Weather Does Not Load Correctly

Recommended Posts

Hi all,I'm running FS9 and tried using the real weather that updates every 15 minutes. When it downloads the weather from the internet, it does not load the correct or actual weather. Why is it not loading the actual weather?Ken Manning

Because there is no telling how up to date the data on the server actually is. Even in the best case, most stations only report at hourly or half hourly intervals and they don't report on the hour or half hour GMT. On the other hand, when the weather is up to date its correspondance with the real world can be startling.DJ

Specs: black box thingy with spinning fans, lights and a bunch of wires that go to screens with pretty colours and a keyboard with many keys. The black box thingy also has a push button activated coffee cup holder.
