October 14, 200322 yr Hi I was looking forward to try some real weather flying today - and boy was I disapointed.I'm from Denmark and therefore selected the closest airport for me - Vaerlose AB. I sat the time to the real time and let FS2004 fetch the "real" weather..... But no - it wasn't the real weather. In real life the sky was clear and really light blue and the sun was shining. Temp. about 13 degress C. In FS2004 I got partly clouded and visibliity at 16NM. What gives?I have read about fsmeteo and other "weather" programs but do they present a better "picture" of the real world weather here in Denmark?Any suggestions about which one?CheersMarkDenmark
October 14, 200322 yr Hello Mark,The Weather addons available will give you more accurate weather. They get their info from a different source than the built in FS2004 weather does. As for suggestion, I REALLY like WeatherCenter 2.3.1 myself. One of the nice parts of it is that it has a built-in weather radar as well as doing a good job on the weather. One thing about any addon weather program right now it seems, is that there's some pretty severe winds aloft change when entering the area of a different reporting station. But they are all pretty nice programs. Here's a link for WeatherCenter if you want to check it out.http://simwidgets.hifisim.com/Cheers,Jim
October 14, 200322 yr or try to fly on Vatsim a lot of times the weather is in a 15 Minutes delay or more it's very hard to get a weather that's current in your area but a lot of times i took a glance from my window and found the same weather that i am flying under.
