I don’t know the specifics on that storm. Maybe it was a bad forecast miss. But central Florida gets a lot of pop-up airmass storms that produce highly localized weather. Flight Simulator will always struggle to handle these because its Live Weather uses a global forecast model that’s best at handling large scale weather patterns. When there’s a big frontal passage or depression moving through you’ll likely see the sim producing some corresponding weather. And despite producing severe weather over specific locations, those afternoon clusters and rings of thunderstorms that spring up over the peninsula will often get missed as the sim draws partly cloudy skies instead.
