Once I perform step 3 (without --enable-real-weather-fetch set) I see an extreme drop in frame rate, from around 70 fps to under 20 fps. Also, I started at KSFO and flew the UFO to Ogden, UT. (Lat 41.1, Long -111.1) somewhere along the trip, the 3d clouds disappeared, although frame rates stayed very low.
