No live weather at all (February 2023)

Finally got the live weather bug – KMSP spawned at gate and clear and 29.92 – not at all what metar is showing.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

METAR is stuck at varying times on 2 February. KORF/KMCO/KORD all show 2 Feb. as METAR date.
Live weather always shows CAVOK although it is overcast/raining/etc. No clouds.

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

I tried an Algerian IP through VPN and the live weather works

Hello,

if I could include also my now report what I think is important here to see. I start my flight from LKTB to LZIB, as usually not long with Seneca. Weather? As reports here. Ok, departed and as weather here actually is like CAVOK, somewhere only few reported, didn’t noticed any changes. Approach ryw31, MMarker erratic sounds mixing together 2 marker sounds. Landed at LZIB and floating runway lights again. Ok, parking, click end flight to Main menu → CTD. Ok restart sim, check Logbook, no entries there from yesterday only stand on Apron, flights no saved. Just reported on Poll AAU1 as CTD also with Photogrammetry and Bing Online services options also. Really very hard time with sim this weekend.

100% just a coincidence.

No weather, only cavok, and extreme stutters in the flight config menu

this is no help! Everything must work as it did before! Simply measures what is currently going on and has been for several days!

I have a slightly different problem but it ties to live weather as well

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

Not sure if this is the same issue, but my problem (starting yesterday) was that weather was abruptly changing all of a sudden. For example, i spawned on an airport with clear sky and cca 10minutes after starting the simulation, during preflight, there was a bit of a lag spike, and then heavy clouds popped into existence with heavy snowstorm. These abrupt changes in weather happened again and again, several times during the flight. Unfortunately i wasn’t timing it, so i’m not sure whether this was happening periodically, or at random intervals. I think that random intervals are more likely.

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

I wasn’t recording, and screenshot is useless in this case, unfortunately.

Can you share the name of the app that the screenshot is taken from?

Thanks.

2ºC and snow on the ground at CYHZ and looks like summer now - something does not seem right with the live weather feature. I personally enjoy flying from cooler places to warmer ones and back, and this is ruining my experience :frowning: I tried resetting the online function and unfortunately, that did not help. I also tried disabling my antivirus and that did not help either.

Live Weather is absolutely not working, atleast on any US servers. Been flying all day, no bueno.

No live weather here all week since last update.

North European server.

Flying out of BWI and the METAR is up to date showing the current weather conditions. Broken at 18K feet and 22K feet. But there’s nothing but blue sky in the simulator. This is really frustrating.

I live in Harrisburg, PA.

Ok, checked it twice … connected to vpn … clouds pop in … metar is current also without vpn …

When disconnected to vpn, changed airport … METAR is “old” (From the 1st)

Connect to VPN while on the runway… METAR changed to current

After leaving, no precip or clouds are displayed on the world map anymore

not sure what to do with theese insights

No live weather, no clouds injection. Greece

I have the same issue. I can say that since Friday, Feb. 3rd, in about 70 to 80% of the times after spawning in, the clouds don’t load up. I’ve tried it at different times of the day and different parts of the world where I knew there are cloud coverage.

I’m getting this error too. Was flying at cruise and then this “bandwith too low for data streaming” message pops up – I’ve got gig internet and the internet is working on our streaming TV – so absolutely not an issue. Textures currently look like fresh vomit :slight_smile:
