Complex weather perfectly simulated

[EmaRacing 302]

Today it was the perfect day to test live weather in my area in the sim: Broken clouds with a cold front which brought the temperature from 30°C to 18°C in minutes, with a couple of thunderstorms, very fast moving and spotted so you had sun and rain then strong wind then sun again in a matter of seconds or 100 meters.
Everything was perfectly represented in the simulator, I'm impressed.

No need to buy 3rd party weather injectors! 🙌

The cloud patterns look exactly as I have outside irl.

I love how weather is depicted in the sim.

I think live weather still a little bugged. When it work its simply great. when it dosnt you get clear day on a cloudy rainy day...

This is positive news. Live weather has been a bit of a head scratcher. Even post release it appeared to be more miss than hit on several live streams I watched.

It happened to me yesterday, everywhere I flew in the world was clear sky, even when I loaded airports where should have been raining, today looks fixed.

Yes, happened to me too today. I was sitting in Roskilde, Denmark - where it should have been cloudy (and heavy thunderstorms nearby)... but clear skies. 😕

I found out, that there was a difference if I chose Live Weather or if I chose Preset -> Live Weather, before beginning the flight... which is weird.

Wow, haven't had the time to even start MFS after today's fresh release install - that's promising!!!!

Maybe everything better synced with Meteoblue ?

Interesting, I'll check if the problem repeats when doing this.

I don't know what they did, yesterday I wasn't impressed, we had this crazy weather today and I fired up the sim like meh... there will be overcast and thunderstorms if I'm lucky.
Happy that I was wrong!

Can you try maybe LYBE ? currently reported there thunderstorm and horrible day. I am getting clear day in sim.

Couldn't agree more. Simply the best weather depiction I have ever seen in a sim.

This is going to attract the hardcore meteorology crowd and they're going to tell us we're all weather casuals and point out all of the missing features and incorrect things. 😀

OK so i restarted the sim there was a small update and it looks as live weather is good.
