15 m/s winds? Heavy rain? Buddy, this is the GOOD weather! Don't expect to see the sun until the start of your next patrol!:rotfl:

Weather is geographically centered on a location on the map (though it will change with time.) You can leave bad weather behind by moving away a large distance.

Well it was set in the north atlantic where they (gasp) bad weather for very long periods of time. As someone said you could spend an entire patrol in crap weather.

More than once I was setting up a shot in the driving rain and could not see my target untill I nearly ran into it.

Although the weather sometimes remains nearly the same state for longer than you want it to, I find the weather system very satisfying over all. I also live very near the Pacific ocean and I can tell you from over 50 years of experience, it's not at all unusual for bad weather to linger for many days or sometimes weeks.

Even weather around Hawaii (vacation capitol of the world) can be quite troublesome. Although I haven't lived there, I frequently fly the area in FS Flight Simulator in real-time weather and it's not always nice.

Count your blessings.
