May 27, 20233 yr Hi all I've recently been flying into NZQN in msfs and I have just have a question about the weather. I can never seem to get a METAR for queenstown and every time I arrive the weather is clear however when I look up the live weather on google, its raining. How does MSFS get the live weather? Does it use the METAR for weather depiction? Regards Ash

Does it use the METAR for weather depiction? Regards Ash NZQN often doesn't show a METAR, even w/ 3rd party METAR readers. If you look here you will notice the METAR displayed is nearly 346km away, and my guess is MSFS just doesn't pick up a METAR that really isn't very useful anyway since it's so far away.
