Could you make a flavor of this mod where storms still happen just at a more normal rate in spring/summer, take away thunder and lightening in fall, but still keeps strikes for when storms are the rare bad ones? Like an in-between flavor? Thank you for reading!

Oh my god. Finally. I am terrified of thunder, even if it's in a game. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. This is amazing.

(To EricaT: ) It sadly doesn't seem possible to have different thunder values for each season that I'm currently aware of. In theory, you could attempt to modify the package in S3PE to change the min-max times from 800-900 to something like 80-120 (or even to the defaults) and the lot-chance to 10, while keeping the minimum precipitation at Heavy.

(To youngmisspayne: ) I sure am very frightened by thunder too, both in real life and with the sheer frequency they occured in unmodded TS3:S. So I'm very glad to hear that this mod is doing well with the target demographic.

(To shota-oddball: ) The sheer strength of the shaking after on-lot thunderstrikes bewildered me too. Though one could in theory create an override to remove the shaking but keep the thunder, I figured that simply removing the thunder would solve everyone's needs.

Thanks for making this mod. Storms are so laggy on my game, i was tired of changing the climate to sunny over and over again.

Thanks for making this. I like rain and even lightning/thunder but those extremely loud, ground shaking strikes always make me jump and are incredibly annoying
