Clouds are now available. Planned: - [x] change clouds colors with the time of the day - [ ] add rain (if possible) - [ ] add snow (if possible...
Winds display support is now added for 2D mode. This use data from NOAA GFS model.

At 0:15, 6:15, 12:15 and 18:15 for the wind.
Winds and ocean wave are not available in 3D mode. Clouds can't work on sea: It's using airport METAR, if airport is too far from the sea it's not available...
You need to have METAR enabled (*Activate METAR support* in install script or *$globalMETAR* in **require/settings.php**) and METAR cycle enabled too (*Activate METAR cycle support* in install script or *$globalMETARcycle*...
When METAR is not available, I will try to use TCDC from NOMAD GFS gib2 files if possible...
Yes it's available on the demo website too. This work when you zoom enough on a selected flight and you are near an airport that give METAR info. I increases...
