>it does happen to me as well>(windows2000 pro sp3)>>You get the weather, click start, everything works fine but if>you switch from fs9 to fs2k4metar it's frozenHi,what do you mean with frozen? Did FS9 freeze? Or did FS2k4METAR didn't respond anymore? The programm needs some time to react on the press of the Stop button. Also the update of the weather did some time. Wait until the METAR message is shown (must enable 'Show METAR')

Sorry I meant fs2k4metar didn't respond anymore.I waited a couple of minutes and it didn't respond, however I might have to wait a little more (?).FS9 was fine though.what does the 'update' check box do?thanks for your efforts it's a great program!

On the date it says 12/31/1969 4:00:00 PM. I have clicked update and show METAR. It says at the bottom 4106 METAR Stations read and valid. I then click start, and it clears all weather. At O'hare, I had some dark clouds, so at least it works there. But in custimize weather, it always reports from Midway or Meigs field. But for some reason, the clouds and wind works. Does it load in things like snow? All I see in SLC are clouds and tads of snow. Yesterday I flew in from SFO, and it was a snowstorm over Salt Lake, using FS9 weather from the real world function. And does the date at the top mean anything? Evertime I change it it always clears the weather. That might've been why it was always clear, I changed the date to today.
