Weather and Events

Seasonal weather

With seasonal weather turned on (default), the season decides the weather once per day. Each season has its own chances:

Season	Default weather
Spring	45% chance of rain, 8% of rainy days become thunderstorms
Summer	10% chance of rain, 4% thunderstorms, at most 3 rainy days per summer
Autumn	30% chance of rain, 5% thunderstorms
Winter	55% chance of snowfall

In winter, precipitation falls as snow in the Overworld, even in biomes where it would normally rain.

All chances can be changed in the Configuration#weather. Setting season_weather_enabled=false gives you normal vanilla weather again.

Weather events

Some days are special. A weather event lasts one whole day and changes the weather, the temperature and crop growth. There is at most one event per day, and every season has two possible events.

Season	Event	Weather	Temperature	Crop growth
Spring	✿ Bloom Day	No rain, flowers and pollen	+1 °C	×1.25 (faster)
Spring	☔ Spring Rain	Rain all day	-2 °C	×1.18 (faster)
Summer	♨ Heat Wave	Hot and dry, no rain	+7 °C	×0.65 (slower)
Summer	☀ Dry Day	Dry, no rain	+4 °C	×0.80 (slower)
Autumn	⚑ Harvest Day	Mild and dry	+1 °C	×1.20 (faster)
Autumn	⇝ Windy Day	No rain, more falling leaves	-1 °C	×0.96
Winter	☽ Frost Night	No snowfall, very cold	-8 °C	×0.75 (slower)
Winter	❄ Snowstorm	Snowfall all day	-6 °C	×0.65 (slower)

How often do events happen?

Each morning the first event of the season is rolled. Only if it does not happen, the second one is rolled.

Season	First roll	Second roll
Spring	Bloom Day 16%	Spring Rain 20%
Summer	Heat Wave 16%	Dry Day 18%
Autumn	Harvest Day 16%	Windy Day 18%
Winter	Frost Night 18%	Snowstorm 20%
