Usually I just type ".metar {ICAO}" to get winds/clouds/altimeter, and make my own decision on runway choice based on that.

Hello,

 

I must say, I was very strictly in history use and recommend .metar command for weather but as most users use real weather systems inside simulator (not Vatsim weather) I've started use real weather observations sites and absolutelly working ok. As also problem can be with user's weather refresh time, some differencies can exists but I see this as not problem, also use of .metar can be still ok. Question is how Vatsim weather still work and how is .metar collect weather data.
