This seems like a really cool mod. I'm currently only playing in Newcrest, so I won't notice any changed weather (especially since I don't have anything installed right now that gives a new town - I don't count the Promenade), but I'll definitely keep this in my folder for later!

Thanks for the comment. I felt that New Crest had decent and interesting weather already

I really like this mod! This was one of those little deatils that kind of bugged me about seasons, I love how in depth you went for each world's weather.

Thank you so much! I was becoming very annoyed that the weather was always the same every day, so I can't wait to add this in and experience some difference!

Fantastic! Love your take on the weathers, though I'm leaving Willow Creek for Brindleton Bay straight away! Thanks for sharing your mod!

OML!!! Thank you SO much for making this!!! I'm sick of EVERY other world having only thunderstorms or heat waves in Summer. Now MAYBE É can travel with his kids and NOT nearly get struck by lightning...

I have a question, is there still possibility of lightning storms? It's a rare event, but I've seen it happen in the game, several thunder and lightning falling on and on.

Amazing! Thank you! I love that all the worlds have more distinct weathers now Hopefully they'll be more predictable, too.

Do you think there's a way for sims to check the weather in other worlds before traveling?

Yes there are still thunderstorms. With today's updated, there is less likely chance of continuous thunderstorms in summer (except for certain worlds like willow creek) and now there is even a chance of cold thunderstorms for other seasons (such as spring or fall).

So far nothing has changed for Newcrest as it seemed good so far.
If you want changes to be made I could possibly do it.

This is how I thought Maxis would have implemented weather and was so disappointed it wasn't the case. I'm so happy to see a mod like this! Thank you!

Yea, that is why I was debating downloading this mod since my family lives in BB too, but I want the new weather for GF vacations. My opinion is BB has too many thunderstorms in summer and few sunny days in between.

LOVE all of this! Thanks so much especially for making Forgotten Hollow have colder weather, for some reason it always struck me as a colder region. ♥

Reduced the chance of thunderstorms and rain in summer and made higher chance for sunny days. Also reduced chance of rain in late spring. Overall BB should now be wet, but still have days without rain.

First of all, thank you for this great mod!

But would it somehow be possible to split this mod into mods for individual worlds, so one could choose which worlds to alter? For instance, I like Willow Creek the way it is, but would like to have the changes for Granite Falls?
