Strange weather in GWX

[ridgewayranger]

Hello Again,
Today I asked my W.O. for a weather report. We had Heavy Rain, Heavy Fog and 10 mps winds. This is impossible? Heavy rain clears fog and so do winds of that speed. Anyway I went to the bridge for a look and there was no fog. It pays to take a look, not charge along on the surface assuming you are hidden in fog!
BTW, in spite of my criticisms I think GWX is great. Thanks to all of the guys who spent a lot of their time doing this so that the rest of us could enjoy the fruits of their labours. I've got no intention of buying that Med Mod, while things like this are free.

Limitations of the code/design. Can't be helped.

What visability mod are you using? 8km (default) or 16km (extra)?

You've got that right.

Good choice.
