FSX-MS Fsx ground texture problem

[abh_jc_03 0]

I have FTX global and I’m not sure what’s going on. I’m flying over Virginia and part of my land is spring and then all of a sudden it is snow. Spring is set in fsx as time and season. Any thoughts?

Are you using any weather engine?

The western part of Virginia did see a significant snow storm on Saturday.

But would that make the ground covered in snow?  I could see precipitation being snow but the ground?  Out my left window was snow covered ground and about my right, right across a river was green.

I've had the same thing and I'm pretty sure it is normal.  For me in the midwest, as I move north out of OK the areas of snow covered ground get more prevalent.  I'm pretty sure it is suppose to do but regardless, its a pretty cool feature in my mind (especially since in the midwest we do get a lot of variation over a stretch of 100 miles in real life).

Unfortunately, FSX nor any weather engine that I am aware of does transitions from snow cover to no snow cover very well.  As for the snow storm in Virginia this past weekend, there was several inches of accumulation.
