Just came across this thread:
Hi guys,
I dont think that asobo uses Data from Meteoblue or an another provider. To provide MSFS Data about the intensity Turbulence,thunderstorms or rainfall. I would like to see that asobo uses Data sets for that what i wrote above. And also it should not be limited and how i wrote, close to realife as possible. Asobo please work together with meteorologist. And dont use only the data of them. i think when you have meterologist in your team and listen to them. The Weather will become close …

Just search for turbulence and you will see there are posts claiming its either too strong or too weak…

Something is going on with turbulences, they feel much more weaker and have little to no effect on the aircraft handling. While it still was a problem before, it feels like it has got even worse…I’ve totally lost the feeling of flying…it became a “driving” sim…
The most noticeable issue compared to real life ( I’m a PPL ) is the lack of any directional impact. You can literally take the hand off the yoke on gusty weather or storms and the aircraft won’t roll nor won’t be disturbed by the turbul…
I honestly don’t know how this has evolved through the updates but it seems it was more realistic (stronger) some updates ago.
