Are Live Weather Local Conditions "Global"?

[mikeklimek 151]

With the latest hotfix improving local weather, consider the following scenario:

With Live Weather activated, the ATIS at airport 'A' (where I'm departing) reports winds 280 at 5 knots.  Let's say that winds at the arrival airport are 255 at 2 knots.  Does the MSFS live weather feature model the arrival winds as 255 at 2 knots, or will the arrival airport conditions simply mimic what was originally modeled based on the departure airport, i.e., 280 at 5?  Has anyone observed anything specific regarding this?

I ask because this can somewhat dovetail with what arrival runway one might select when flight planning.

Conditions are not supposed to be global, and I've not noticed anything that would indicate that they are. (within a flight from A to B)

Note that there have been issues with the game not updating live weather as often as it should which may be why sometimes it appears more "global" than it ought to be.

on my end MSFS pretty nicely renders different weather conditions which I would actually define as "global" weather (depends on your perspective) as the weather is globally depicted based on local conditions. Or easier: yes, when I departed today at LOWI for LIEO there was a massive rainy soup at LOWI with low visibility and right after the Alps the sky cleared and I landed at sunny though windy LIEO.

Live weather is still hit or miss, based on multiple active threads on this topic.
