The Manual says „If you have the Flyable Conditions overlay switched on, the Map Ruler will also display a layer of forecast cloud ceiling...“. Both Picture show the forecast according to the setting „Today or tomorrow“. Left with „Flyable“ switched off; right with Flyable switched on. Why does Flyable „add“ clouds?

That helps, thank You! Although the What's Here Menu shows different values in the map than in VR. I added an example with the recent TAF of „St. Anton am Arlberg“. As You can see, the main cloud base differs significantly and the upper ceiling is not shown in the map at all.
