    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Live weather not working

So I am giving MSFS 2020 another go and its been a while since I last loaded it up. I can not seem to get Live Weather to work, it only gives me a clear sky. Any ideas?
 
I think it never really did work great.
At least in some regions.
In the tropics , it always gives thunder and lightning.
Even with clear skies.

Asobo recommend starting your flight with the Clear Weather preset, then select Live Weather from the in-game Menu Bar.
 
The latest issue seems to be that it just takes a couple of minutes to load in. The starting with clear bit was for repeat flights. The issue was (several updates back) that you'd finish one fight on live weather, then set up another one, but all you'd get is clear skies. For that, Asobo said to start your first flight in clear weather, then select live once you've clicked Fly Now.

Personally, I haven't seen this issue. It may be related to which regional server you're on.
