WEATHER FORCE IS THE NEW METAR-BASED DYNAMIC REAL-TIME WEATHERENGINE FOR MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATORBy utilizing inter-process communication with the simulator viafine granular control, you will experience automated, dynamic, andsmooth weather transitions from real-world reporting metarstations. /images/notams/notams20/rex0927/wf2at.jpgWeather Force also includes a wide range of proprietary dynamic,changing (non-static) weather scenarios. These scenarios are unlikethe static weather presets that ship with Microsoft FlightSimulator. WITH REAL-TIME METAR DATA AS THE FOUNDATION, THE WEATHER FORCEWEATHER ENGINE PROVIDES A MORE REALISTIC WEATHER EXPERIENCE. The metar data is updated 6x an hour and downloaded directly from NOAA and can provide accurate results within a 1/8th mile of a given point.Weather Force utilizes uniquely built algorithms to combine both metar and model data to cover sparse areas such as deserts and oceans.The GFS (Global Forecast System) Model data is downloaded twice daily from NCEP and provides key atmospheric conditions to give a snapshot of temperature and winds aloft. /images/notams/notams20/rex0927/compare-2t.jpgREMARKABLY UNIQUEWeather Force reads remarks provided with live metar reports todetermine if storms are near the aerodrome.

/images/notams/notams20/rex0916.jpgREX Simulations is pleased to announce REX Weather Force 2020 forMicrosoft Flight Simulator. Weather Force is the new METAR-based dynamic real-time weatherengine for Microsoft Flight Simulator. By utilizing inter-process communication with the simulator viafine granular control, you will experience automated, dynamic, andsmooth weather transitions from real-world reportingA metarAstations. Weather Force also includes a wide range of our proprietarydynamic, changing (non-static) weather scenarios. These scenarios areunlike theA static weather presets that ship with the simulator. With real-time METAR data as the foundation, the Weather Forceweather engine provides the most realistic weather experience. The METAR data is updated 6x an hour and downloaded directly fromNOAA. Our data can provide accurate results within a 1/8th mile of agiven point.Utilizes uniquely built algorithms to combine bothA metarA andmodel data to cover sparse areas such as deserts and oceans.The GFS (Global Forecast System) Model data is downloaded 2x a dayfrom NCEP and provides key atmospheric conditions to give a snapshotof temperature and winds aloft.Beyond The DataWeather Force reads remarks provided with live METAR reports todetermine if storms are near the aerodrome. Thus, even if theautomated METAR may indicate clear conditions, if remarks indicatestorms nearby, storms will be generated near the reporting station asin real life. Powerful Weather Search If you are looking to fly at a particular location or in certainweather conditions, we have included a handy weather search featurethat allows you to search by airport or by weather criteria. Dynamic Changing Weather ScenariosTo mix things up and add more interest, we have supplied dynamicchanging weather scenarios (DCWS). "Dynamic" is key about our weatherscenarios in that they are not static like the default presetweather inside Microsoft Flight Simulator. Weather Force scenariosdynamically change over time. A weather scenario will provide variouselements of changing weather over the course of yourflight. Examples provided below of included scenarios: Fair weatherApproaching cold frontApproaching warm frontHot and humid summerLake effect snowWinter stormCrisp winterBreezySpring showersBecause DCWS are centralized on our servers, we can periodicallyadd new and exciting scenarios, which will be automatically added toyour application without the need to have to update Weather Force. In Weather Force you can easily track your ten favorite airports,therefore, clearly identifying what the detailed weather is like ateach. If you require a more detailed report, simply click on the ICAOand receive in-depth data about the airport weather conditions. Behind The Scenes The GoalThe goal of Weather Force was to provide a more robust weatherenvironment. We have been provided a powerful weather system as astart, therefore we worked hard to render the weather as it should beyetA stay true to the validity of real-world METAR data. Smoothing MechanismIn addition, we have carefully added a smoothing mechanism to theengine to gradually smooth and transition the weather over timebetween updates.
