Issue Temperature always = ISA ?

Hi there

I have noticed that the temperature at high altitude in X-Plane doesn't match the temperature according to Active Sky. For example the temperature according to "current conditions" during my flight at FL340 is suppose to be 5 degrees above the one shown in X-Plane. It looks like in X-Plane i get almost only a constant temperature-gradient equal or very close to ISA, even when there should be a few degrees differences to the ISA-conditions.

Can it be that the temperature coming from ActiveSKy isn't being injected into X-Plane? I am using the last available version 7618.

Thanks for any feedback :)

Best regards,
F.

I think that's a limitation of the X-Plane own's weather engine, it cannot reproduce other scenario different of an standard adiabatic gradient, with temperature inversions in the atmosphere as it happens commonly in real life.
