Weather in Tartosa

It's the same for me! I was about to post a bug report about this because this really doesn't seem to fit with the climate of Mediterranean worlds, I have only twice experienced rain in summer at all LOL and yet in Tartosa spring and summer seems to get bad weather more often than it gets good weather. It really seems like a bug to me, because it can't be that a world meant for weddings would have such crappy weather? 

I have to be honest: I'm not 100% sure whether this is a bug or an intended feature but if it is an intended feature, I just don't get it at all. Tartosa is a world inspired by the Mediterranean, which is where I have lived for many years and I can say that bad weather in spring and especially summer is an absolute rarity. Yet in Tartosa, spring and summer almost always comes with cloudy weather and rain. It's also extremely annoying since it's meant to be a "wedding world", so good weather would be much, much more fitting than the weather we currently get. Right now, almost any world (including Windenburg, Brindleton Bay and Henford-on-Bagley) get better weather in spring and summer than Tartosa does, and I again just cannot imagine that this is an intended feature for a Mediterranean-inspired world meant for (outdoor) weddings to boot. 

Edit: I don't know how this ended up in Technical Issues rather than Bug Reports which is where I'm pretty sure I clicked "new topic" lol but this is meant as a bug report, not a technical issue!

Haha yeah, I live by the Libyan Sea so admittedly very far south! Everything completely withers and dries up over here in summer because usually the last bit of rain will be around May and doesn't start up again until September or even October... in between that time, it's scorching sun all day, every day. Not always great in the real world, but in the Sims.. I wouldn't mind that weather for my Sims at least in the summer! Haha

Build and promotional wise it seems like they were pushing for outdoor weddings, but how are we supposed to do that when it rains so much?

you can turn off (tone down) rain in settings but that affects all worlds 

@Fierande I actually meant to comment that the reason your post is in a different place than you recall placing it is likely due to one of the moderators combining similar issues. Which makes sense do to the utter chaos this forum would have with all of our comments and issues, lol. But also I do hope that @EA_Cade or one of the other gurus can take a look and perhaps adjust the settings in certain worlds for a future patch! (Thanks to any guru who can take a look for us!)

Happy simming, friends!

I turned rain off in my game and I shorten the Autumn/Winter seasons to 7 days and set Spring/Summer to 28 days. I usually leave on Snow but it depends on the circumstances. I only have a couple of households in Tartosa but I want it to remind me of my awesome Mediterranean holidays where it was almost always gorgeous weather. I just added a vacation lot with a stable because it's nice for a horse holiday, clip clopping around the streets.

I'm in the North of England so, yeah I see enough rain as it is! There's currently a big yellow shiny thing in the sky outside my window and I'm not entirely sure what it is 🌄.

Hi all,
