This bug also cuts both ways. For example, current Meteoblue coverage at Mt Mansfield in Vermont:
This is consistent with webcams:
But in-sim right now it’s green:

Dev stream says in-sim snow coverage = meteoblue snow depth
Observed reality is in-sim snow coverage != meteoblue snow depth
It seems impossible to tackle things like ice coverage which you say is based on snow depth when snow depth is not being brought in correctly.

I was also frustrated when I tried to fly around the Ofotfjord, taking off at Eveness. All frozen. I thought the Ofotbanan was built because Iron Ore mined in Sweden should be brought to Narvik port for year-round shipping as the Bottenhavet is frozen in the winter. I guess, though, that these things happen only when you want to fly in real weather.
I fear that Meteoblue is not up to this task. Neither is Asobo.

Notes:
there is no snow anymore. starting with this weekend, bike downhill parks are opening in the mountains (at least up to 1600m / 5000ft).
these webcams are there and you can spot the airport down in the valley:

Asobo, please fix it. You told us you would fix it in SU15, but you probably just made changes to the ice coverage, but not to the actual SNOW coverage. two completely different topics!

If you fly around the Swiss Alps - after Update 15 - Meteo Blue has still not been able to work out a solution with MS. Now, end of May, temps. around 20 deg. Celsius for a long time - the whole area, but maybe also Austria and France, is covered down to sea level with snow all year round if you try Real Weather. I checked out Alaska - same thing. There, even the sea is covered with ice. Pictures from Samedan airport where now the summer hiking season is beginning: First, MSFS, then Webcam

currently for example the region of interlaken has already snow in the valley. currently it is end of summer there and we have heat waves with more than 30* C. At least the lakes are not frozen anymore since the last sim update with the slightest bit of snow.
