Hello everyone, I’m not sure if anyone else has thought about this or wondered why. I spend a lot of time on Silverstone in-game as it’s a home track of mine a go there regularly and the weather/sky is always bright and sunny but in Forza it’s always been a dark and gloomy track like a storm is about to hit.
This sort of thing happens on a lot of track in previous Forza titles as well as the current Forza 5. Is there a reason why Turn 10 does this on certain tracks?
Hopefully Silverstone will be sunny one day.
I don’t really like Silverstone for that very reason. So cloudy…almost depressing 
I prefer the older version from Forza 3, a bright blue sky, some clouds here and there but not as much as in Forza 5.
By the way, to answer your question I think they do this to give tracks more character. Hopefully one day we will get rid of these static conditions with an awesome, full day/night cycle.
I think its intentionally designed that way because Silverstone does throw up some varying weather during races especially F1.
But as Fruria hinted on, it would be cool to have a dawn, afternoon, evening, dusk, night option with weather options of clear, cloudy, wet, storm conditions with lightning flashing every so often. The lightning would be super cool in the night races.

When they laser scanned the track for the Xbox One, there is a very good chance the weather was kind of sucky and so they went with it.
