ive been usuing fsx for the past 6 months and it sticks for several days then.. who knows why but every once in a while itll dload actual weather. many discussions on this that dont give a satusfying answer. some say it hasnt worked in year but that cant be true. the best hope i have is some say IT WORKS BUT YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU COMPUTER DOESNT HAVE OLD DATA IN THE TEMP INTERNET FILES. i however have done this to no avail.

There's currently an issue with real-world weather that we're aware of, we're working with Microsoft to try and resolve this.

DTG Cryss Please fix this problem as soon as possible I depend on real world weather to keep my flying skills sharp and please keep us up to date on the progress of getting this issue fixed. Thank You very much!

Meanwhile, you can use FSrealWX, that seems to work fine to many people. I have tried it for few flights and uses the METAR provided by IVAO/VATSIM or NOAA, so it's pretty accurate.

I purchased active sky and that seemed to fix my weather issue!

Keep in mind that the default real weather system in the original FSX would only download weather for the area you are in and not the entire world so when you flew out of that area there would be no weather. Using a weather add on such as active sky or Real Weather is how I fixed this.

I just got the Steam edition to try and get some of my Mach 4 aircraft to work in it so I am coming to it from the box edition so not sure how good Active Sky is but Real Weather is amazing.

active sky is really good too

I have been very happy with active sky good thing I saved the money I got for Christmas!

there are good free weathersolutions too.
but if you can afford it active sky is topnotch.

I've been using this freeware for several weeks now with good results. I'm quite happy with it.

Well?

Get a freeware alternative. They were always better and more reliable anyway.
