Same for me. Last few days (like a week cause I’m back in the game recently)… lightning everywhere. I flew around Nice, France… lightning storms (I live here ffs). Flew around Monument Valley US… Lightning storms with few clouds… Flew over Hawaii… same… Flew over Romania… same… WTF?
It scary that in the live stream they completely down played it… a problem has close to zero chances of being solved if is not acknowledged!
Asobo guys should be more profesional on livestreams and never dismiss reported problems as being absurd or unreal. If they don’t believe it’s true and they’ve checked it quickly at the coffee in the morning they should simply refrain from talking it down.
Say: “We will keep looking into it, for now we have no information”.
Otherwise it could be a real big problem and they will simply look stupid.
I loaded up my local airport kmke there is rain and possible tstorms in forecast but currently it is just mostly cloudy. When I clicked live weather on the map it showed a thunderstorm but in sim it was actually pretty spot on as far as what it looked like outside and I didn’t see any lightning or hear thunder. Yesterday I loaded at same location and it was mostly sunny outside and in sim was constant thunder even though there were only a few clouds. I am cautiously optimistic it’s been fixed but will still need to further test to make sure
