The part at the end about microbursts is cool. That's one step closer to a realistic thunderstorm.

Now we need the rest of it, like a real 3D weather engine so a CB looks like a discrete 3D storm (including the visuals!), instead of something we just suddenly morph into with the current horizontal pancake model for weather.

I hit a "downburst" flying through a thunderstorm in XP last night. I was already down over 1,000 feet when the plane went into a flat spin. Lost 6,000 feet in less than a minute before I finally recovered.
