*** DALLAS-FORT WORTH INTERNATIONAL ***
The biggest airport that is closest to my location, has had at least one very recognizable crash, where a Lockheed Tri-star crashed due to windsheer.

*** CLEAR SKIES IN OTTAWA ***
My friend ArcticKitsune, who is the OP of this thread, has asked me to try flying X-Plane today and tomorrow due to (iirc) bad weather conditions. Sadly, I hopped on too late. The bad weather had already passed, and according to the in-game local map, there was a thunderstorm or heavy rain down to the south-west of my position.

*** UNFAVORABLE WEATHER CONDITIONS, PART 2: VANCOUVER ***
About a week or so ago, I took a series of pictures flying through a fog-filled Ottawa titled "Unfavorable Weather Conditions in Ottawa" (or at least I think I called it that), well, here's the continuation, this time set in Vancouver. I wasn't able to fly through Ottawa while it had bad weather this morning, but at least Vancouver still had some, in the form of heavy fog.
