What ist the difference between the Clouds in Virtual Radar with „Flyable“ switched on or off?
The Manual says „If you have the Flyable Conditions overlay switched on, the Map Ruler will also display a layer of forecast cloud ceiling...“.
Both Picture show the forecast according to the setting „Today or tomorrow“. Left with „Flyable“ switched off; right with Flyable switched on. Why does Flyable „add“ clouds?

The values shown are the same, but only if your finger is at exactly the right point. In mountainous terrain, an AGL value will vary significantly over a small area because the cloudbase is essentially flat.

The lowest cloud top is not shown in What's Here on the main map because it is not depicted on the main map.
