Weather Forecast for next turn for GROUND Weather is not working, only showing current GROUND weather.

That's because we never coded a ground forecast, just the air weather has a forecast. Can't remember if Pavel felt it was too hard to do, or if because you get down to the individual hex when it comes to ground weather, he didn't think it was worth trying to provide. But we never planned on having a ground weather forecast. I will clarify that in the manual (I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned in the manual, but can't find any mention of there not being a ground weather forecast). Thanks for pointing it out.

Errata 1.04.03 (clarification) - The estimated future weather is only for the Air
Weather. No estimate is provided for the ground weather.

Makes sense, as the accumulation of mud/snow is randomised, you can never guarantee which hexes are going to be mud and which are not.
