# Localized Weather
A Fabric mod that replaces Minecraft's global weather system with **per-zone localized weather**. Rain, snow, and thunderstorms happen independently across the world, with smooth transitions at zone boundaries and Minecraft-style storm clouds.
## Features
- **Localized weather zones** — 256×256 block zones each have their own weather state
- **Biome-aware rules** — deserts stay dry, snowy biomes get snow, etc.
- **Smooth transitions** — rain/fog/sky color blend seamlessly across zone boundaries
- **Storm clouds** — blocky, Minecraft-style 3D cloud layers appear over storm zones, visible from a distance
- **Directional darkening** — sky, fog, and clouds darken toward approaching storms
- **Better Clouds compatible** — works alongside the Better Clouds mod
## Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.9+
- Fabric Loader 0.19.2+
- Fabric API
## Optional Dependencies
## Installation
2. Drop the mod jar into your `mods` folder
3. Launch the game
## How It Works
Weather happens automatically — no commands needed. Each 256×256 block zone rolls its own weather independently:
- **Clear skies** last 10 minutes to 2.5 hours before a chance of weather
- **Rain and storms** last 10–20 minutes before clearing
- **Biome rules** kick in automatically — deserts stay dry, cold biomes get snow instead of rain
- **Transitions** blend smoothly over 20 seconds at zone boundaries
- **Storm clouds** appear as blocky 3D cloud layers over rainy/stormy zones, visible from far away
Just install and play — the weather will do its thing.
