Hi,
I'm running the "latest and greatest" v3.0.7.71 and use data from X-Plane 10.25 - not that I think that matters for this issue. I have a simple flighplan from ENGM to ENBR. I open the View tab and select the Weather Info. I know for a fact it's winter here in the area, but the Weather Info shows Temp 15C and Dew 17C - which is clearly wrong. The QNH shows 1013. The timestamp seems correct. OK, wrong, outdated data and thus not very useful...
However, when I right-click the ENGM airport icon I get a popup with lots of information - among others what seems to be the current METAR. And, it all fits in with the matching Weather Info display, EXCEPT for temperature and pressure. The METAR states ... M02/M04 Q1018 .... -2C/-4C 1018hPa is actually correct and I thus think the METAR is actually valid and up to date and there is a BUG in the mapping from METAR to Weather Info display.
I have attached a screenshot of the fact :-)
By the way, is this the appropriate place to file bug reports, or are there other channels for that? I get a feeling it will disappear in the myriad of other posting...
Best regards
