Replacement file for the seasons.bgl file to match reality a bit better

Featured Replies

On breakfast TV (UK) the other day, the weather guy said that meteorologists like to define dates for seasons, even if the planet doesn't! September = Autumn. Perhaps MS took that as the definitive answer? :)

Maybe you're right :smile:

 

I guess the only way around this problem is to adjust the date in P3D manually to better match reality.

Saw fall colors on arrival to Tampa FL this morning(?????)...I agree, 9/1 is way too early even for northern latitudes.  Not sure why it would show up in FL at all!!

Here's what  September looks like in P3d's seasons.bgl:

This clearly shows how off the seasons in P3D (and previous simulators) are so too bad it's so hard to fix on a global basis.
