Weather

Weather affects any character's actions in the game. First roll a d6 to determine the season the game starts in:

d6	Season
1	Winter
2	Spring
3	Summer
4	Fall
5-6	Re-roll

Then refer to the weather table for the temperature.

Month	Season	Temperature
1	Winter	Chill
2	Winter	Chill
3	Spring	Cool
4	Spring	Cool
5	Spring	Warm
6	Summer	Warm
7	Summer	Hot
8	Summer	Hot
9	Fall	Brisk
10	Fall	Brisk
11	Fall	Cold
12	Winter	Cold

Then, every day (every six watches), roll a d6. There's a 4/6 chance that the weather will be same as yesterday. If you roll a 5 or 6, roll for the new temperature and event.

d6	Temperature	Event	Intensity
1	Cold	Snowy/Rainy*	Light
2	Brisk	Rainy	Moderate
3	Chill	Foggy	Moderate
4	Cool	Dewy	Moderate
5	Warm	Windy	Moderate
6	Hot	Clear	Heavy

*snowy only in cold months.
