I'm playing around with Get Famous as a new household, but is there supposed to be weather? All I'm getting is sun. I've travelled to Windenburg and they have weather; is this normal for Del Sol Valley?

I mean, it's supposed to be based on Los Angeles and Hollywood, which are mostly sunny all the time. So I would think it's normal.

Los Angeles (and by extension Hollywood) has only two seasons, One lasts 10 months of the year and is Sun and heat, the other is 2 months or less...and is rainy (on and off). If they modeled the weather of Del Sol Valley after Los Angeles then the weather will be pretty mild other than occasional heat waves most of the time, similar to how Oasis Springs is hot almost all the time.

Sun in summer and a LOT of rain in the winter I am finding

We get the occasional day of rain, or even a thunderstorm. I had to run the air conditioner last month, so I'd say the weather is spot on.

Plus, I used to live in Southern CA, which includes the Los Angeles (I hate L.A.) and Hollywood area, for over fifty years. Trust me, the state often suffers YEARS of drought, but the saying is: "It never rains, BUT that it pours." Where on Earth do you think the mud slides come from? :open_mouth: Drought, fire, heavy rain. It's a very mean cycle, but there you have it. I no longer reside in my state of birth (thank God!).Hang, on, I've got pictures of the rain in Del Sol Valley: This is my Global Superstar at his sidewalk framing ceremony. Note the drip of rain by my Sim:https://i.imgur.com/RSaqKyt.jpgArrival for the Big Moment:https://i.imgur.com/eokBIBJ.jpgAnd his Frame is Placed:https://i.imgur.com/lJ77hfw.jpgETA: Oh, and if you want snow in Southern CA, you need only drive about one hour to the mountains. Big Bear, Lake Arrowhead. I lived near the beach most of my life. Hated that, too. Not a fan of sand. Plus, it's much cooler the nearer you get to the coast. Only in the low 70s.

Ohh, okay. I was just super confused to see sun and only sun.

The name of the neighborhood literally means "The Sun Valley". Of course it's mostly sun and only sun for weather!

Yep...definitely modeled after Los Angeles/Hollywood.

I've seen LPs where it's raining and thundering a lot - I'm not certain what season is being played though

I haven't noticed. I'm only there for the Simanda events, or when someone "drags" me down to the cocktail bar. It's not a very interesting town to begin with, so I haven't spent much time there.

There are thunderstorms and rain. And a lot of sun. It’s quite like the weather in LA, I think.
