I think the winds need to be above 15 kts or so.

You probably do see rough water but it never looks particularly rough because waves breaking on a shore or over a sea wall aren't modelled. So no matter what all seems calm and relatively peaceful. Nor are there tides or ships and boats riding the waves.
February 7, 20242 yr Yes the seas are relatively flat in live weather, even with strong winds.

February 7, 20242 yr Seas must be flat. There is no physical modeling for water. Planes and boats float on flat surface. Two meters high waves and you plane would sunk which does not look realistic. I really hope that the MSFS2024 does model the water...
