Abrupt Weather changes still evident (Latest 40th Anniversary Update)

Please see below example taken during a Youtube stream

Also note how quickly the water dissipates, which is completely unrealistic

Moved to Community Support-Weather and Live Weather. Water dissipating is not an issue that was being addressed in the Beta Update (1.29.29.0).

Known issue: Clouds disappear suddenly

This statement is incorrect

“…Water dissipating is not an issue that was being addressed in the Beta Update (1.29.29.0)…”

1.29.29.0 did NOT fix the water dissipating from the ground after a rain shower, the ground dries up within 5 seconds, which is completely unrealistic as i mentioned. I just tested it ( I am on 1.29.29.0 ), and it does not work as expected. It was also not in the release notes of 1.29.29.0, in fact, no mention of anything weather related.

I agree with you it is not realistic but since it is something that has never been implemented it is not a bug, you should open a topic in the wishlist forum. I found a similar request but it has been closed: Wet Runways/Etc Dry So Fast - Is there a way/mod to allow the Wet Look to remain longer?

Had abrupt weather state update yesterday using live time & weather - MSFS 1.33.8.0 - was flying glider over central europe when after about 40 min in flight all surrounding clouds changed with added heavy rain near me.
I’ve got good internet connection - no warnings etc.
Expected that any weather updates would be gradual not in split second - especially important and immersion breaking when flying gliders whose fuel is weather.
