[SOLVED] - Storms with CAVOK at LEMD SMP, RWC & ASXP

[donoscar]

Hello,

please see below video, I have a strange issue at LEMD where METAR shows CAVOK but I get an impressive lights show.. I have tried refreshing weather, checked the METAR.rwx, reconfiguring ASXP with SMP and RWC, no changes.. I have observed this behaviour over the past three days.

Maybe I missed it in the video, but I don't think you ever tried the "force weather reload" item in the SkyMaxx Pro menu.

It's also possible that the storms blew in from a nearby location, even if the weather at the airport itself was clear.

I did the weather reload in the SMP menu and in the debug section of ASXP several times.

there were no storms in the surrounding locations. CAVOK all around. I have attached the metar file in my first post.

I've seen some users report that switching RWC to auto mode and then back to external injector can clear this up. Might be that the config for RWC is corrupt and that can clean things up. Also check for other rwx files present in your x-plane directory that might be confusing the system.

thanks Frank, I deleted a file fsgrw.rwx that most probably came from my previous weather engine and one MAXX_METAR.rwx. seems to have done the trick, summer's back in Madrid

Totally makes sense. If fsgrw.rwx is present it assumes you are using FSGRW, and will show whatever weather it last published.
