I really like the results of the local weather code - this isn't the place to generate much excitement :) My impression is, you need some help from someone who can hack the C++ environment code, to make the global weather code interact better with your local models, and unfortunately most people here are pretty busy. As always with FG, the current global environment code has many problems, but also works sufficiently for many people, so changes to it may provoke some complaints; anyone touching the C++ parts will need to show some improvements, but also that whatever use cases (sadly, all undefined) existing users have, continue to work. (I discovered this when I changed the GPS code around) Ideally we'd add sufficient hooks, to move some of the current environment code (possibly even including the metar fetch) to Nasal, and then the entire problem moves to the script domain. I suspect that means making a much more flexible Nasal interface than we currently have, however.
