I'm off for work right now and can't look into it.
You should see the raw data in 
/environment/metar

>From there it gets interpolated over time into 
/environment/config/aloft[n] and
/environment/config/boundary[n]
This is done in $FGDATA/Environment/metarinterpolator.xml

>From here, the code in environment_ctrl.cxx interpolates over 
altitude/elevation into 
/environment/config/interpolated 
without any interpolation over time.

The last step is done in $FGDATA/Environment/interpolator.xml, this 
interpolates over time into /environment

A1: This is on my todo-list and needs some thinking about.
A2: That's easy, the timing rates are in the mentioned xml-files. They 
definitely need some tuning and I am open for suggestions.

Greetings, Torsten
