It's coming at some point. Depends when the devs decide to prioritize it. Right now they're working on social complexity as their "big project" so weather will come later.

Also snow biomes exist ontop of mountains :)

Before we do anything like that, maybe rework them to be worth visiting.

There's a seasons/climate/weather update pending sometime. I figure it can wait until then.

Weather would be fun.

No.

Please, just no. It might be exotic for people living in Florida to experience some snow, even virtual. Can't there be one place on the planet that is devoid of any weather? Please?

Or, if you do decide to implement snow - let me get the ability to turn it off...

Isn't Haven supposed to be the ultimate experience of what could be in life? And you're asking "please don't let there be weather?" I hope Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter is implemented.

Weather would be so awesome! Some rolling fog, torrential rain, a blinding snow storm! Maybe even the occasional rain of frogs!

Rainstorms that replenish mudflats would be nice.
