I'm using REX in the Caribbean along with Air Hauler and a lot of times there's no weather for the airport I am going into.  Is there any way to search for nearest METAR other than flying over the field and trying to find a windsock?

 

 

right click on the  rexe weather  gauge  and click search icao I think  its called  and  type in the details  and it will give you the weather  report, or  you can go to map view  click on the airport  as well, or  you can go online  as well

 

or  you can go to this link and  just type in the icao in the blank field  and it will give you  the report as well

Yes, a lot of the smaller airports in the Carribbean do not have METAR reports, so the search does not work.

 

Ahh, ok, I zoom in the map and try to click on an airport and nothing happens.  Right now I try to click on the major airport at Nassau and nothing happens.

 

ok you can also use sky vector.com as well  if  you load  your flight plan in you can check each waypoint  the weather along your  route as well
