Even before the 2024 release I was worried about the announced 24hr historical weather. Let me make clear, I think this a great feature that many people will use and enjoy, it just requires careful implementation. The time used in the sim needs to be able to be separated from the weather, for exam…

The historic weather is a welcome feature, but I agree the option for a ‘Live Weather Now’ regardless of the time should be made. Echoing the points above, I don’t enjoy night flying all the time, yet it is often dark when I start flying especially this time of year.

Please fix this one! Very important to have the choice if I want to stuck Live Weather and Time together, or handle it like in MSFS2020.

Is active sky working well in msfs2024?

Haven’t tried it myself, just saw that their website says “MSFS2024 is supported via Open Beta B9090 or later and is a work in progress”

Didn’t even look into this one before filing a bug report because I think this is a bug. The “Custom” weather/time dialog has no indication of historical live weather, it just has time and weather separately and they HAVE to be separated entirely like in 2020.

I fully agree. This should be treated as a bug and not as a wishlist item. Else this is really poor design.

Yeah it doesn’t work like he said. I tried that as soon as it came out but none of the pressure and winds matched real metar. Shows you how much of a mess when even the employees don’t actually know how it works. I just don’t understand how the devs didn’t realise this would be a problem. As soon …

and what about multiplayer flights? When dialing in daylight for scenery viewing, should we all set the time to the exact same hour to avoid differences in weather?

Agree with OP. This was such a critical feature in 2020 and to completely remove this feature is a huge mistake (whether intentional or not).

Live Weather is not separate from date that is selected

@Chewwy94 sorry for ping, but your workaround posted here:

It doesn’t work, the weather will be aligned for the time and ignores the date apparently.
