Live Weather not synching with Real World

iPad Air (4th Gen)
iPadOS 18.0

Hello support team,

I hope you are well.

Ever since we all got the new servers from the big recent update, I have noticed numerous times that the weather conditions in the servers don’t reflect the real world weather as they used to do.

Here’s an example from today morning. In Savannah (KSAV) real world information indicate strong winds at surface level up to 34kts whilst on Expert Server is only 11kts.


A second example that unfortunately didn’t take screenshots, was on the 19/09/24 at EKCH. Winds were supposed to be coming from the southwest at 24kts and on the Expert Server they were coming from the Northeast at 7kts.

Hello!

The multiplayer server have nothing to do with this specifically, so the changes you mention are unrelated.

The METAR is what you should be looking at. We pull the METAR for airports every 30 minutes from an external source. There are however cases where the METAR is unavailable for certain airports and then we have to rely on the most recent available one.

Looking at your example KSAV, it seems to be accurate:
METAR: KSAV 270853Z AUTO 16036G57KT 9SM BKN017 OVC025 27/24 A2927 RMK AO2 PK WND 15065/0813 RAE52 SLP912 P0003 60003 T02720244 55009 $ (Source: METAR TAF : Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, Savannah Georgia United States)
