October 11, 20205 yr Hi guys I could swear after the wind bug got fixed which I think was 2 patches ago the representation of Live Weather in comparison to local METAR got a lot better. Maybe I was lucky because it seems now, in particular this evening the Live Weather has no bearing on Metar at all! In fact it seems to be thundering and lighting everywhere I go and clouds are just way off. I think the constant thunder is a new bug but look at this, on approach to ENGM local Metar was CAVOK This is what I saw in the sim after flying through all the clouds lol Thomas Derbyshire
October 11, 20205 yr I agree. It seems something is wrong with weather server today. Same stormy weather all over the world today. May need an Ark. Robin
October 12, 20205 yr The weather is not improved since release. It's completely random: some days it works, some days is completely off.
October 12, 20205 yr I also had thunder everywhere in Europe over the weekend but no thunder out of my window at home?

Apparently for some unknown reason, every time there are some clouds there are also thunderstorms. This was introduced in the latest patch (1.9.3.0).
October 12, 20205 yr made 2 flights today, EDDM into LOWI and KFLL into KEYW in the Kingair and weather seemed ok. seemed because I do not know the actual weather at those 2 locations/areas but it was immersive, maney clouds also overcast into LOWI and NO thunder/lightning and scattered clouds over the keys, again no thunder/lightning.

October 12, 20205 yr Commercial Member Yea, i usually check site like windy to get an idea of the weather, cloud base etc. And its very often NOT what i see in the sim. So, i started to check weather in Meteoblue website, and obviously its a perfect match, and their map with the diffrent layers of info is actually really good. Good surprise.You can see erally easy if the conditions are VFR, whats the cloud base, the temps, etc. https://www.meteoblue.com/fr/weather-maps/grenoble_france_3014728?variable=metar-flight-conditions&level=surface&lines=none&mapcenter=37.7360N13.9197&zoom=7

How can you say weather seemed ok but not reference to local metar?? Thomas Derbyshire

October 12, 20205 yr It's clearly an issue within MSFS because on Meteoblue website weather is always spot on.
October 12, 20205 yr Flew two flights in southern Alaska yesterday where RW weather was generally partly to mostly cloudy with scattered rain. What I flew in was 700-miles of strong thunderstorms.
