Thank you 

It's not a bug. LM has not included multiple "cloud volumes" in the present implementation. That's the trueSky term for having different weather in different locations within the user's reality bubble. So the weather is the same everywhere you can see, until it changes and then it happens instantaneously.

Beta, Beta, Beta. Did I mention Beta?

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700F CPU @ 2.90GHz (8 cores) Hyper on, Evga RTX 3060 12 Gig, 32 GB ram, Windows 11, P3D v6, and MSFS 2020 and a couple of SSD's

imho EA should not have been included until it was out of beta?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D | GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super | MoBo:  ASUS Prime X670-P WIFI | OS: Windows 11 Home 64bit| RAM: 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | HD: 2TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 PCIe SSD, 1TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 PCIe SSD | MSFS 2024

I have the issue today in LOWW where no clouds are reported, but active sky creates few clouds with EA enabled. So there is now "clear sky"

Does this mean I won't see a situation where I'm flying in clear sky and see a thunderstorm off in the distance?

If I remember correctly, the use of ASP3D is still beta also in V5. You gotta remember v5 has turned DX12. Not to mention we just now are getting graphic drivers that are made for DX12, on top of that Win 10 is now beta with the ver 2004 release. The whole kit and caboodle is beta. But I'm liking it.

ASP3D without EA performs pretty much as it did in V4. There are a few bugs that are being worked out. Using ASP3D with EA however has some serious issues mainly the cloud popping or rather the instant weather change,

Yes. In it's current implementation EA just shows a single theme until you get to the next weather read and then changes it instantly. ASP3D has no control over that as there is no API available for LM's beta implementation.

EA is there just to show what can be done down the road but it  is still just a beta with most features disabled.

If you want to see what it looks like thewn enable irt but if you want to fly in real weather - use ASP3D without it.

Windows 10 version 2004 is not a Beta 😉 Or it could be a (running) joke on Windows ? I can hardly compare the "Beta" of P3Dv5/EA or the Beta with Active Sky for Prepar3D with Windows 10 2004...
