              @Bruno-Cadet In general, there are no such plans for this. I am sorry about that.

                @Suty no problem. However sim-users would subscribe to Premium to have this !

                  Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) pulls weather data from meteoblue
                  https://content.meteoblue.com/en/about-us/references/business-partners/microsoft

                    In your flight simulator , try to take off (or landing) from Tokyo , airport RJAH, low IFR now, with heavy thunderstorm (+TSRA) and visibility 1500m.

                      Flying into RJAH with a thunderstorm and 1500m visibility sounds like the perfect way to test your nerves! One minute you're a confident captain, the next you're questioning every life decision on final approach.

                        That would be a fantastic feature for flight simulation enthusiasts. Being able to display your aircraft's live position in Windy while using a flight simulator would make it much easier to compare in-game weather with Windy's forecasts and plan flights in real time. Even if it were offered as an optional plugin or Premium feature, I think many flight simulator users would find it very useful.

                          For those who enjoy flight simulation, that would be an excellent feature. It would be much simpler to compare in-game weather with Windy's forecasts and build real-time flight plans if you could see your aircraft's current position in Windy while using a flight simulator. I believe that many flight simulator users would find it very helpful, even if it were made available as a premium feature or optional plugin.
