Weather settings initially ignored

[jimjones]

Why does the initial setup of custom weather after selecting a plane and departure A/P get ignored? My continued experience is that setting weather to minimum clouds the flight begins with heavy clouds. The upper pull down menu weather settings verifies this. MSFS flaw or my lack of skill? Of course my work around is to use the upper menu weather settings after starting the flight.

I read somewhere that even those menu options work in a "dynamic" way. No clue why there would be a difference in start method though...

It's a bug. I see the same things. Annoying.
