How is the weather score calculated?

Scores factor in visibility, ceiling, precipitation type/intensity, wind speed, and gusts from METAR/TAF data. Higher score = worse weather = more fun.

Does this work with MSFS 2024 live weather?

Yes. We use real METAR/TAF data that matches what MSFS 2024, MSFS 2020, and X-Plane pull for live weather.

Can I export routes to SimBrief?

Yes. Click the SimBrief button on any route to open dispatch with origin, destination, and aircraft pre-filled.

Where does this data come from?

METAR and TAF data is sourced from AviationWeather.gov (https://aviationweather.gov), NOAA's Aviation Weather Center.
