It will be helpful that the Rain monitor and the flyable view will be shown in the flightmode movingmap and also in the vertical view. The flyable view is a very good improvement and gives you very goodd safety informations.
I know that the weatherinformations need a mobile connection to the internet, but in higher flightlevel you don‘t have connection. Therefor it can be helpful to show a timer with the last connection to the weather network. 

Best regards

As a forecast product, it is a prediction only. How much the actual conditions agree with the prediction will vary, as is always the case with forecasts. Sometimes it will turn out to be very aligned, sometimes it will not. Attempting to use the forecast as a tactical weather-avoidance tool in flight is asking for trouble and we do not intend to enable the layer in flight for this reason.
