Takeoff clearance denied because weather is stated by ATC to be "IFR" in obvious VFR conditions in career mode

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: Starting first mission at home airport KTIW, after starting up and requesting taxi clearance, ATC says “TJI5013, Ground, airport is currently IFR. Request denied.” In addition, if I continue to fly, I get pilot performance deductions for going above altitude 400, but message says to climb to 800. Then I get another pilot performance deduction for going over IFR speed.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue: Cessna 172 Skyhawk

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue? Yes, no mods

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? Every time and can’t get past it with getting a mark down in score for not using ATC.

REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

I have to open communication menu, then click on request IFR clearance.
Then is says: " TJI5013, is cleared to Tacoma airport as filed, expect runway 17, maintain 400 ft.
Click on readback, then it says to contact ground on 121.8 when ready to taxi.
Once I talk to ground, it says Taxi to and hold short runway 17 via taxiway.
