ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue: The live weather turns off by itself during a flight. The aircraft loses or gains a couple of hundred feet, and a significant wind shift occurs, the OAT changes.
Re-enabling the live weather helps change the weather again, but it will be disabled by itself again in a few minutes.
Weather: Live
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
This has been happening on every flight since the SU3 update.
@LomaPL
I fly almost exclusively in Free Flight with Live Weather and have never encountered this issue.
I suspect that it’s going to be hard for the test team to repro this based on your reproduction steps.
Could you provide a list of all addons (payware or freeware) that you have installed on your system, whether enabled or disabled.
Thanks.

I have been using Elevatex for the last couple of months. Yesterday, I had a lot of issues with the live weather turning off and desynchronizing. Today, I decided to skip Elevatex, suspecting it might be causing these problems. Turns out it might be the culprit.
Per another report we know Elevatex was impacting time setting (Always back to real-time? - #6 by DAQUA3828) but it would be interesting to know if it could then also have an impact on weather setting. Please keep us informed if disabling it definitively fixed your Live weather turning off issue.
Just happened to my flight as well, I had kept the weather window open to make sure it stays on live weather. If I close it then live weather could drop off.
Happened to me in the FSL A321Neo and I’m not using elevatex or volanta or anything like that. Live weather turns off every 5-10 minutes. Opening the weather window automatically goes to the “custom” option with live weather off.
This happened to me yesterday. On my first flight in the morning with the new B707 on Vatsim all was well.
During the second flight in the afternoon with the same aircraft, the live weather would cut out and revert to standard weather randomly about every minute or so before reloading live weather.
This switching back and forth between live weather and standard weather conditions continued throughout the flight.
This has also happened before on different occasions with different aircraft.
I have a stable 1GB internet connection, but the live weather streaming cuts out randomly, sometimes after a few minutes for about one minute, sometimes for a few seconds. It is completely random and very annoying when flying online because of the sudden speed and altimeter setting changes.
The weird thing is that the following flight after a restart of MSFS 2024 was completely normal, with no changes done.
This issue is marked as being solved. However that is clearly not the case.
