Microsoft Flight Simulator Weather Settings: How to Change
In real life, a sunny and clear weather is required for a safe flight but if you want to change the weather, you can do so in this game. To tweak weather settings manually, you have to visit the Weather tab in the menu (it will be on the top). Manually choose if you want presets like few clouds, scattered clouds, broken clouds, overcast, rain, snow etc.
Moreover, you can manipulate a lot of settings right here as per your wish and requirement. You can change the temperature, time, precipitation, day, time and much more. Want to make things extra terrifying? Go ahead and add extreme winds and lightning to the mix. Remember that MFS has made the weather settings very realistic so be prepared.
Speaking of realism, you can get the actual Live Weather of the area you are flying in too. Depending on your location, you will get the local weather conditions that the game will take from online information. Hence if all your other settings are highly realistic, we suggest you keep Live Weather on as well for the complete experience.
Note that the best time to change weather is before a flight. You can do it by clicking on the Flight Conditions option on the top right area of the World Map screen.
That’s everything you need to know about changing weather in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Challenge yourself by selecting harsh weather conditions or endure realistic weather based on the location. Either way, it will be one amazing ride.
