Weather is location based. Climates that are more like jungles will have more frequent rain, while those resembling deserts will have less rainfall. Differences in climates can be viewed using the player's [[Special:MyLanguage/Worldmap|map]]. In general, areas appearing more green are areas of higher rainfall, while areas appearing more brown are drier. And of course, white areas indicate snowy regions.

Climatic areas are defined with a few properties, the ones weather patterns are effected by are temperature and rainfall. A weather pattern can specify a weight function that handles checking where a pattern can form. Either <code>AvoidHotAndDry</code> or <code>TestRainTemp</code> may be chosen, <code>TestRainTemp</code> requires the pattern to specify ranges for rain and temp. Without a weight function a pattern may occur in any climate. Patterns also have a <code>weight</code> property that generally specifies the probability a pattern will occur.

There are nine basic weather patterns in the game and several more variants. Each one has associated cloud shapes and precipitation. However, there are still only four different attributes for a weather pattern, clouds, fog, precipitation, and lightning.<br>

Weather patterns can cause rain, snow, or hail. For some patterns, the precipitation is controlled by the climate, so a cold location will snow while a warm location will rain. Other patterns will always have one form of precipitation.

'''Rain''' and '''snow''' irrigates farmland, allowing [[Special:MyLanguage/Farming|crops]] to grow. It also extinguishes [[Special:MyLanguage/firepit|firepits]], [[Special:MyLanguage/torch|torches]], and [[Special:MyLanguage/forge|forges]] exposed to the sky. Any block extinguished by rain can be relit using a torch. Hot work items on anvils are also cooled down.
