Same here. 29.92" and 225/03kts.

I think it’s a known (odd) issue that it goes down at 1800 eastern time every night?

When does it come back up? 😶

it's the msfs curfew. Those of us who have paid for the product have no right to enjoy the product.😇

Should be back up shortly.  Yesterday it came back just after 7pm eastern time.

So what happens if you dial back the sim time two or three hours????  LOL!

It comes back at precisely 19:12 Eastern time. (00:12Z). When I say “precisely” I mean exactly that - you could set your watch by it. This has been happening since the beta started.

Does the problem only apply to beta users?

Thanks everyone. It seems it's a known issue.  It's back up now.

I ended up trying REX again as others suggested as the alternative (trying to get past my objections about it and give it a chance).  The modded Longitude has engine problems when using REX, can't get enough thrust for climb after 25,000ft.  Another disappointment about REX.

I know this may be obvious to some, but is it possible that they might be implementing the days fixes, and refreshing their new code against the meteoblue data? After all it would be a world wide refresh and might take more than pressing f5 in a browser window?? 

I mean is it possible that they are just working on the weather as they said they would?

Well I wish they wouldn't bloody do it during prime US evening simming time!

Since it is worldwide it is always someone's prime time evening simming time 😂

 

And it's only 6:32 here.

I suppose that's true, might as well be mine, I guess.  Frustrating that it happens at all.  Has it been officially acknowledged?  I experienced it a day or two ago after the live weather fix, but haven't fired up MSFS due to general frustration since then.

Kind of, if not explained. You can scroll through this thread to see some kind of acknowledgement...
