weather is totally wrong today

[Driver170 42]

The weather is totally wrong today in ASN for FSX. I'm checking the weather source where it gets it from and ASN weather is well off.

Completely different to all other weather sources:

 

ASN: LIPZ 241552Z 36007KT 320V020 CAVOK 08/05 Q1019

PFPX: LIPZ 241520Z 15003KT 120V180 CAVOK 16/10 Q1021

 

Rain in Vienna although there is nice weather today ...

Hi,

 

We have only these 2 reports so far (duplicated a bit on hifi forums and tickets) with no other apparent widespread issues.  We are investigating and any network issues found/updates will be posted on our forums or support site.

 

I am curious if you two are using the VATSIM option?  Perhaps there is a problem with that data source/connection to VATSIM.  If so, turning the option off, restarting ASN and observing the results would confirm this.

 

Is this isolated only to Europe?  Do the "erroneous METARs" state that they are being interpolated?

[Driver170 42]

I use V pilot and you just use ASN weather thats injected.

 

So far UK portugal and poland all affected.

 

No interpolated

The weather is frozen for hours and it doesn't update

Can you please open a ticket?  http://support.hifitechinc.com

Please include a log export via tools->export logs.  Thank you!

Same here. Completely off vs official metars.

Hi all,

 

Quick update:  We've identified and resolved the issue.  Specifically we had a hardware issue coupled with an invalid status check process on our newest server (lacunosus) leading to stale weather delivery to those connected to this server over the past 48 hours (about 5% of ASN users were affected).

There does not appear to be any VATSIM data issues as previously suspected.

 

We apologize for the inconvenience and as always are working hard to resolve any network issues as well as implement new handling to prevent these kind of issues in the first place. 

 

Thanks to those who reported the issue and provided further details, helping us to more quickly identify and resolve this.

Thanks for the great service!
