November 18, 200322 yr I noticed that FS Meteo sets gusts incorrectly. If the METAR says, e.g., 30012G20KT, the winds will actually gust to 32, not 20 knots.I'm using FS Meteo 6.3, FS9, FSUIPC 3.12. I verified this with the FSUIPC weather log. In the FSUIPC docs, it says that gusts should be specified to FSUIPC as relative offsets, not absolutes. That is, for the example above, gusts should be 8, not 20.Of course the result is ridiculously strong gusts. I've had to disable gusts when using FS Meteo for now.Just thought others might want to know.Dave
