Brief description of the issue:
High clouds coverage/overcast is non existent as well as localized convection, lice cumulonimbus on top of mountains or “pup up” storms

I can’t because they do not exist in the game after su7, or personally never seen them again ever since
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
High clouds overcast example
Local convection example
This is MSFS live weather overcast (in a METAR area) after METAR was implemented
And this below is MSFS release timeframe (2020), notice how the higher level clouds were much more dense. I just flew from a beautiful full (*HIGH LEVEL) overcast out into clearer skies. PLEASE bring back the old clouds!

Another example today flying over Papua New Guinea area.
The clouds are where they should be, and it seems like the weather engine is TRYING to create the local isolated thunderstorms, BUT the “guts” of the storm clouds and of course rain etc are missing. See screen snips below. Notice how the upper layer of the thunderstorms are showing and lower clouds but everything in between are literally missing.
And here is the same area on windy.com showing the cells clearly are there (bright white circular cloud areas) “X” is where the aircraft is, moving Northbound toward the stormy area.
