• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Anyone else having trouble with FSMetars

For the last few days, I have not been able to pull down real time weather using FSMetars. I am using version 1.5.4. It's worked like a charm for me...but now won't work at all. I try all three Metar sources (IVAO, VATSIM and NAOO or whatever it is) and keep getting failed metar download messages. I downloaded the program again from the source page, reinstalled it...and nada.

Last time I had a problem with the weather updates (Rex and FSX's last weeks weather) it was due to a change in my firewall due to a definition update. Time before that it was due to a slow internet connection. Could be one of those reasons.
 
I'm facing the same problem today with Fsmetar, OBIO.
I tried IVAO, VATSIM and NOOA Server without success...

Same here.

Went to the downloading website and said that they were changing the server, supposedly they should be back on line "at 00:00z", whatever that means...

Let's see what happen...

Saludos :salute:
