It seems like many people have had problems with FSX built in real world weather lately, I think you should try this free weather program: http://www.hanse-coders.net/index.php?page=self&id=1

 

It requires also free version of FSUIPC installed, you can get it from here:

FS weather has been off and on all month. Time to use a free or pay weather program.

Really? So I should just use REX Real World Weather?

 

That would explain why its always cloudy flying out of my home airport on real-world weather.

The FSX real world weather has been static (non-changing) since about 3/18 or 3/19.  Just is not updating data.  I did a Google a few days ago and found the same lull has occurred at other times.  Most recent I see though was in 2010.  I am hoping it gets working again.  I also have a weather and textures add-on and it only brings in winds approx once each 12 hours.  Over the past two weeks with some of the weather systems that have moved across the county that has not given me winds aloft consistent with the flight planning I do on a real world flight planning site.  The same site I use for my IRL flying.

Isn't that why you purchased REX, lol?

 

Yes, time to use REX or other programs.

I merged the OP's other topic with the same title here.

 

Best regards,

Jim

It is back working again.  Checked several airports today and also took a 3 hour flight.
