When /// is in metar it causes sky and cockpit to turn black for example RJAA 122230Z 33004KT 4000 BCFG BR FEW001 SCT/// 10/09 Q1025 BECMG TL2300 6000 NSW
Having a simpler metar like XXXX 122230Z 33004KT 9999 FEW/// 10/09 Q1025 causes the horizon and haze to become black and not the whole sky. You can also refer to this forum post: https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=30984

    Verified on 2020.2 -- sky is also black at certain times of the day, while clouds remain white.

    Wow, quite a fun one. We should add some test-coverage for parsing metar strings to cover this.

    @scttgs0 will you cherry-pick this to 2020.3 ?
